Installing a wind deflector - 981 Boxster

I ordered the (overpriced) genuine 981 Boxster wind deflector kit.
The kit includes items 2-5 of the attached picture. Item 1 was already installed in the car. For some reason the kit includes 10 screws (item 5 of the attached picture), even though I can only see a use for 4 of them. Any idea why?
The next thing for me is to install the kit! Are there any instructions on how to install it?
(I don't have a garage so will have to wait for the rain to stop to take the roof down).
Thanks v much
Elliot
 
Any thoughts? I was able to remove the original piece which item 4 replaces - see photo below of the bit where the new wind deflector fixing unit is supposed to fit (item 4). However, I was unable to insert the fixing kit as the space was too tight and I think it would have ended up snapping. I think I need to somehow remove the plastic outer shell that runs behind the two head rests, but I don't know how to do this. Tips please?

Thank you
