Default Classic 9 Leather Shop Hood Pad

I just installed the hood pad as purchased from Classic 9. Both pieces of the pad were well trimmed, fitting in the cavities nicely. The Porsche logo decal has a nice appearance as well. The various pieces seem to be quality. What would have helped would be a YouTube illustrating the decal application method that the instructions tried to describe. My decal is well centered and looks good enough. But pealing the application tape off the back of a large decal with many edges and getting the job done right the first (and maybe only) time that this is attempted would have first benefitted from a visual explanation. Anyone have a video of such a process to share for the benefit of others?

No need for video, Place the pad without adhesive where it needs to be positioned. Make for marks with a sharpie, on the four outside centers of the pad as well as marks on the hood in order to remember it's position. remove adhesive backing and place the pad. Starting with the center and move outward. It helps to have a second set of hands. Some will recommend removing the hood, but in my experience that wasn't necessary.

No...I was referring to the (large) decal placement onto the already installed pad. Anyone who has done this must have realized its a bit tricky.
