Hi Peter, as always, carrying out everything in the best way possible. Just a question, have you considered having your original hood frame modified so that you don't have to leave your seat to open the top. Instead you unlock the two screen locks, lift and drop it back behind the seats, and to close it, just the revers of that? Just an idea.
Keep up the fantastic work.

Hi Amir, no I hadn't considered modifying the frame, opting to keep to John Barlow's design to keep it simple.
I did see something about this in your recent article in the owners magazine but the picture wasn't clear enough to see what you had done.
Maybe something to consider for my future projects
cheers, Peter
