Should i take off the red flap before I install it or leave it on?

I'm sorry, Adam, can you clarify what you mean by the red flap? Are you asking about the protector screen that covers the digitizer (back side of the glass)? If so, yes, this should be removed before you install it. Peel back the protective film right before you slide the ribbon cable connector through to the back side and settle the glass onto the frame.

red flap I believe is attached to a clear plastic protective film try removing it slowly to see if I am correct different suppliers may be different hope this helped

I noticed that too. I left mine on, but it's easy enough to remove anyways.

Plastic flap should be flush with the brush material, slightly pushing into it to minimize air leaks. At least it is on mine.

If the insulation is falling in on you while you are installing the fan, block it with whatever you have handy. Cardboard pieces, duct tape, whatever. Leave it once you are done. Generally there is no reason to remove it.

You can leave it on. It is extremely easy to put it in. It is less than 1 hour for installation.

You need to drill a small hole at the bottom of each flap, but the hole is onto a plastic part

Mostly cosmetic. I chose to omit using it, which is a nice feature, that you can remove it if you wish. MY choice, to NOT use it, was due MAINLY to my specific application involving very limited space. The other purpose that the cover may serve, again, depending on your application, would be to prevent accidental initiation, as would be in the case, lets say, if you are using it to start a motor of some sort. It would prevent accidental ignition. One warning from me, the red LED switch is EXTREMELY BRIGHT. I ended up switching out mine with a blue one because of it's extreme brilliance. It lit up the entire interior of my Blazer! At night it was quite a distraction. Mostly cosmetic. I chose to omit using it, which is a nice feature, that you can remove it if you wish.

Remove the outer rubber puck like cover. It is on snug as a glove but it does come off:)

looks like everyone else has answered what you needed to know.... i would wait for a warm day in the sun to install, it fits really tight, also be carefull with the door surounds, the plastic knob that attatches to the body broke on mine when putting in place.

I leave it on. Leaving the cover on will minimize embers leaving the fire pit.Having said the former.....follow the manufactures recommendations.

Long time since I had mine but from memory it is motion that sets it off, like picking up the bike. If you put to cover on before activating it should be OK.

Leave the flap open when you screw on the lid so it doesn't build up air pressure.

I just wipe it down with a damp cloth Carefully. Make sure you are not holding the button on.

Yes the plastic cover should come off, it could trap too much heat and melt or be a fire hazard.

The flap isn't bad...if the weather is incorrigible, I just put the door on that closes the flap. The part that needs to be sealed well is the other side of the door where the two sliding doors overlap. Be sure that is sealed well or you will be heating the outdoors.

Not at all. I keep it in with the top up or down. Piece of advice... Easier to install if the removable door frames are removed first (very easy).... Great for bright sun scorcher days

Agree that you will need to take the cover off. Also, the straps must run between the spare and the back door panel -- I had to temporarily remove the spare to get the straps in place.
