Default MTI Clear Lid

hey people.
Yesterday I bought and installed a clear lid on my ride. It was hard as hell to get the tabs to fit in the slots... Also, I had to remove my Ferno bellow and replace it with my stock bellow. Is this normal?

I didn't have any trouble with my bellows, but one of the tabs was kind of a pain in the a$$.

Default Same deal here

I also just installed the MTI clear lid and it was a pain in the *** to get the tabs in, damn things keep popping out. I thought for sure I was going to break the damn thing. My advice is to take you time and find the right angel. It will eventually slide in and seems to fit really nice, no issues as yet. Looks so cool!

I have the stock bellows so that wasn't an issue for me, but the bellow does look kinda squished now.

Later

It is a little tough to get both tabs in, but it needs to be otherwise it won't fit and seal correctly.

PM me if you have any troubles and I'm more than happy to help out.
