Thanks Scott.

For sure. Good idea.

I was aprised of that already and had anticipated that part of the cut
on my own. I didn't want to learn how to roll the edges in, so I
figured I'd put some type of plastic on the opening to "take the edge
off it". So to speak.  ;^)

Maybe I'll use some of the stuff that slips over the edge of the
gutters at the front of the van. I pulled some off the front gutters
of the parts Vanagon. (it was glued on and snapped :(
