A question for the experts here(or anyone who knows the answer).. how do these pieces attach to the steering column/ clamshell? Do they just slide in ? I can’t seem to make them stay. 70 914/6.

Credit to Chris (tygaboy) for finding this. I'm curious to hear about quality. The price is ... $51 each piece or for both ? The tins ? I used sections of four cylinder dash tins modified and patched (welded ? ...can't remember) to suit. Attached thumbnail(s)
