The only generic things I can say is be sure to really really waterproof the inside on the hood. I used White Bathroom Latex Paint for the inside of my hood, then applied (3) coats of Polyurathene to insure a waterproof seal.

That is really the key; take your time, get the edges straight and you should be great!
