I believe there is a how-to install a lip write up in the "How-to:" section. Probably help you out more than I can

Don't bother buying the OEM plastic screws. I have swapped all the phillips tipped screws out with the simple "pop-in/out" versions. The stock ones strip/break/ get ripped out. Find the cheapest and use those. OE will cost way to much.

It's held on by metal screws only, no glue, no tape. Only screws
