I'd love the same info, if anyone has it. There are some good pics in the Gallery on this site--I've been studying them. Look at the Iowa buses and you can see the different approaches.

Someone who has actually done this would have a lot more solid info to provide.

See my deck here -- April 2 through May 9.

Hope this helps. There are quite a few ways to make it happen.

Best of luck
