Tenax fastener receivers installation

Has anyone here installed the German Tenax fastener button receivers in either a cab boot or tonneau cover? If so, it is difficult? Does anyone have a documented procedure to follow?
Thanks in advance.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good morning

The pins just screw into a pilot hole.

The receivers unscrew using a pin tool and a pair of pliers. Just place them on the hole, seat them into the fabric and screw the cap back in place. Protect the surface with a small bit of tape on the jaws of the pliers.

Thanks Jamie,
I am more interested in the procedure for the proper installation of the posts, buttons, and most importantly fitment of the tonneau.
How many Tenax fasteners are required? I count 10 just around the back of the cab top, and 3in the dash. Should there be a Tenax post and button along the door sill?
Do you work from front to back?
Back to front?
Side to side?
An installation instruction guide is what I am looking for...
