I screwed ( bolted ) mine in place around the edges when putting on the piano hinge and then let the rest of the stuff being applied to the firewall, be what held it in place. Also, I did not use what everyone else used between the wood and steel. I got fire retardant paint from AS and applied many coats of it to the wood before putting on the steel. If you think that is bad, then think about using aluminum as a firewall. I thought, and still do, that it was good, because it actually distinguished the fire.
