Default Side Exhaust Insulation Install Advice

Has anyone installed the Side Exhaust Insulation from Paragon?

Obviously the foil side goes to the pipes, but hoping to get more particulars on this. One side has the foild all teh way to the edge, I assume that goes to the outer edges of the covers? Is there anything to hold it in place or does it actually get wedged under the body fiberglass as the body sets down?.

I actually wasn't planning on using glue - is that something you have heard is appropriate? If I have enough room, I may alternate the material to a mnore heat resistent technology ... now that I have seen the part I ordered.
