Installation of Tonneau cover ???

I always drove sports car with a tonneau cover; it is usefull when it rains and when you have no passenger in the right seat;it is even more interesting when you leave the car in an outdoor parking. It does not scratch usually. Unfortunately, my Cobra which I own for now more than seven years had no such device. Last week, I bought a tonneau Cover made for 427 from Robbins Auto Top .(California) for approximately 200 dollars. It came with the hardware (I already had the mounting metallic posts (pins) on my Cobra). Room is provided for the steering wheel but I shall have to modify it to accomodate it to my roll bar. Could somebody give me some advice to install the hardware on the vinyl cover? I think this will be a very tight fitting. Do I need special tools? No instruction was included with the cover and hardware. Thanks
My ERA cobra has the studs in the car body for a tonneau cover. Other than the cost, are there disadvantages to covering the cockpit with a tonneau cover? Will the underside of a tonneau cover scratch the car body? I would appreciate hearing any user expereince, thanks.
