First time was a nightmare. All the zips were jammed gutters grabbing etc. Took about 30 mins to close it

On the gutter things that slide under the body coat them with Vaseline, works a trick.

Remember that the canvas hood needs to stretch and settle the first time - takes about a week in the upright position.

Also, a good trick with the zips - the side windows, line them up with the snap popper nearest the tailgate, snap that in and they'll be perfectly aligned - just take your time with the zips the first couple of times until the hood relaxes.

With the roof bars on I've got it to about 5 minutes up/down now!
