Did this item work well with your project? What vehicle type are you using this for? Triumph spitfire 1500 I fitted the roof almost to the manufacturer's guidelines and the end result was very good. It was not too challenging to fit. However, if you follow the guidelines completely it is near impossible to stretch the fabric out sufficient with the roof bars clamped down And then glue it in place. I fitted the fabric with the roof bars bent and then once the glue had dried I stretch it out. it was challenging to get the roof to close initially, I had to leave it in the sun for a day afterwards. The roof is now very tight, water proof and looks good. the most frustrating thing about all these foods are that the soon as you thought them up it creases the windows
