Those press studs are difficult to do up as you need one hand to hold the frame up, and two hands to pop the studs closed.The side poppers are also tricky. It needs strength and a firm grip.

I also have a Simmonds black leather hood cover which came with the car. This is much easier to fit. It slots over the two pins at the back, tucks all the way round , then secures with a long zip. This is significantly easier that the factory popper system but in my opinion doesn't look quite as good when fitted.
