How do I reinstall the trunk latch cover on my '64 cuda?

Hi 66Dvert, I can't tell if you're message is to Syleng1 or to me, pete. My cuda is a '64, one of the earlier made that year I think. It doesn't help to see pix of the cover already ON & Over the trunk latch. I already know what it looks like when it's on. I need to know how to get the cover over that "tab" with the hole in it in my top photo. I may just cut it off if I never figure out how to get my cover over it without cracking the cover. It's been too long since I took it off for the body work, >18 months, & I forgot to take pix while I was taking it off. I'm working on putting chrome back on the outside for now & will get back to that cover later... pete
