An attachment system for attaching a first component and a second component includes a dual sided tape assembly having a dual sided tape, a release liner having a pull-down peel tab and a base release liner releasably attached to the dual sided tape, and a retainer for holding the pull-down peel tab to the base. The retainer may be either a sleeve or an adhesive pad. If the retainer is a sleeve, the release liner includes an intermediate portion between the pull-down peel tab and the base. Folded areas exist between the pull-down peel tab, the intermediate area, and the base. A portion of the intermediate portion passes through the sleeve. If retainer is an adhesive pad, the adhesive pad is attached to the base. The pull-down peel tab is temporarily attached to the adhesive pad when initially installed on a substrate.
