Thanks, Ron. I saw this cloth on eBay (from Richmond Design) a while back. I inquired about its use on the 630 by messaging the seller and was told this was not the correct design for the 630 so I left it at that. Saw a YouTube video on "Chevron grill cloth comparison" and didn't realize that the fronts are different from the backs due to stitching and coloring. So one actually has a choice on which way to install. I'm sure that when I take mine apart, I will see that this is exactly what I need. Here is the video.
