Post a little more info on the flag and I will try to help you.

Is it a full roof, sunroof or no sunroof and what flag is it, how many pieces.

I had problems with this. The perforated sunroof panels stretch very easily and create hundreds of bubbles, and if you're not careful, creases. Try as best you can to lay it down without pulling on it. I definitely needed a second person for that one extra hand.
