i would put snaps in the body first. is the windshield out or does it not interfere with the dash snap location? any event i would start front center to back center and then work out to edge. i would make a full pattern rather than 1/2 pattern and then flip as the rollbar may not be centered. if you have the snap pins then put them on studs and pull materials to them and set.

is it attaching to dash?
