Default 1936 Ford Cabriolet Top Boot

I'm getting ready to install the boot on my newly purchased '36 and I don't understand where the front snaps attaches too (see pictures). If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

All of the '36 cabriolets I have seen do not have a forward snap for the front boot on each side. Evidently, the factory didn't feel it was necessary. What others have done (myself included), is to put a snap in. It appears from your pictures the boot people anticipated that you would be adding the additional snap, Note the pictures of my cabriolet.

This may be hard to see but it is a page from the 36 Cabriolet top instructions.
