The BA design was just a couple of primative hinges that's all.Just undo the gas struts, and then unscrew the bracket and lift it off. Might pay to have someone helping with it though....heavy little suckers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have ordered this option on my SP Ute and with the spoiler attached, it does make it compulsery to fit a reversing camera if you are a shorty. It's fine for me as I am tall but others I know who have this option have difficulties. I think it looks horn, but each to there own. It's not everyones cup of tea, but if it floats your boat then go for it. Regards BobI agree totaly with this one. Test drove one the other day, it had the bars too(yuk), I LOVED it apart from the fact I cood only just c cars behind me. Doesnt help bein a short ass female either lolPS, wood it b easy to remove the bars or wood I b left with holes in the cover where they were Edited 04/01/08 03:02 AM by chikt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of motor journalist don't like them. I'm thinking about getting them installed on my ute. I know they're expensive. I just want to konow what Ford fans think of them.TaIgot a cheaper hardcover from flexiglass,was around $1,200.What comes in real handy about this cover is the handles,you don't need to get your keys out to open it but it's still lockable.Didn't focus on looks here,if I did I would have got a genuine product but I'm actually quite happy its looks.
