I ~finally~ got mine, too. Already installed and look great.

I also installed a matching key surround--it might grow on me.

You're welcome guys.

The install was pretty easy. I ended up using the blue tack stuff that you get at OfficeMax (etc.). I just rolled into a small strip, placed on the back in various locations, and stuck. They have held for a few days--one of which the car sat in the sun and heated up pretty good inside. We'll see if the blue tack is robust enough. Otherwise, I'll probably switch to double sided tape.

They look very cool at night.

Jeff,

Blu-Tak is fine. I bought these rings in a previous GB almost a year ago and used Blu-Tak and none of them have come loose.

arrived and installed....very pleased. used a puddy-like substance called Quake-Grip which is normally used to secure decorative fine china and glasses. Figured if it'll hold up during an earthquake, it'll handle a few bounces now and then...prolly not too different from blu tac...

I couldn't find the blue tack either. I'm going to try some of that earthquake putty.
