Micha, I haven't glued it yet (see above) but if I decide to go with these, then yes, I will forst remove some/all of the original pattern.

Why? You have plenty of extra time now since you won't be doing your 250 or 365...

Mine was plastic strips at the start also
I am sure Jamme, that you will do this a lot better I am just sorry that I had to do mine BEFORE yours

Thanks for your encouragement guys.
I am thinking about how to make this better and I will take it through to the end if only to learn something in the process.
