[TR] TR3 tonneaau revisited

Although my tonneau is for a TR250, the material is used, I fit mine a 
little over two year ago, did it in the warm sun, had to stretch it a little 
and the lift the dots on the front are about as far forward as they can be. 
Although two years is not a lot of time mine seems to have gotten a little 
looser over time, is not bad at all to put on now, used to need a little 
muscle and sun to make it work, less beef and heat is required these days. 
I have been known to push down on the middle when it is all buttoned up and 
sitting out in the sun on a hot day, I think I have stretched it out a bit 
by doing that.

Of course if I were a pessimist I would buy into the old adage, you have two 
choices, "fit it a bit loose, ensuring it will stretch, or fit it a bit 
tight, ensuring it will shrink".
