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.

yah they are short fat head phillips screws. Prob can go to home depot to get em. Just make sure they aren't too long. Like I would say 1/2 inch long at most

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