Mixed review, 1st, when fitted, the bar looks fantastic, 5*. But fitting it is a bit of a faff, Instructions aren't great, and needed to pack out the sides with spacers and use washers + 2 bolts from my toolbox, The (free) perspex windstopper looks cheap and the Velcro attachments are poor quality, stitches on 1 came apart on 1st removal.And finally... on the day I get the email to say "item to be delivered today" I get an email to say they have been reduced to 99 quid (from the £157 I paid the day before) NOT impressed.Still super fast delivery, And it does look great, just be aware.

This item arrived late due to interlink, however the finish is superb.Watch the instructions you need to pay attention to fig 2. Be careful to remove bracket and washers underneath the seat belt bolt and as I instructed dont tighten up as it final adjusting.

Ce produit est magnifique : le tube est épais, les soudures régulières et le polissage impeccable.Le montage est un jeu d'enfant, tout s'adapte au premier essai, le pare-vent est bien compatible et reste basculant.Le résultat final est "TOP".

Very NiceOrdered mine in November, came very shortly the next day. Bars were not too hard to fit, but we were confused about how many washers to take it. To make things more interesting, it started raining half way through! We got there in the end, but I could not get the seat belt caps back on. The bars look very lush. I tried the windblocker but took it off in the end as the attachment strips were ugly.

I bought the Stainless steel Style Bar ..and product came very quick. Good and quick service. However i didn\'t manage to install the plastic covers of the seat belt as this they cant fit. The metal is too think and the plastic cover cant fit there. Any ideas please how to install this?Thanks.Regarding the stainless steel Style bar... GO FOR IT_ 5 Stars :)Editors Note: Glad to hear you are pleased with bar, a member of the sales team will be in touch with you directly to sort out the fitting issue.

Ordered Wed 09/10/13 and arrived next day. I have the Mk2.5 with the factory fitted wind blocker and built in rear speakers. This was VERY tricky to install aligning the fixing holes through the bars and blocker but nonetheless an absolute must and looks the part with the V shape head restraints, I'm not sure I'd like it with the rectangle restraints as in the picture. if it wasn't for the wind blocker it would have been installed in no time. I had to use my own 6mm x 20mm hexagonal bolts to get leverage with the 10mm ratchet. Note, take care removing the seat belt plastic covers as the clips broke on mine; grasp both sides of the cover and very gently pull them from both sides and ease them off, there are three retaining clips which can break. For the sake of a few pounds order new ones just in case

Great service, fast delivery as usual. Very pleased with bars and wind blocker, easy to fit only took 30 minutes. As previous reviewers have mentioned instructions are best ignored unless you get stuck, if you are reasonably mechanically minded its a doodle. Fit could be better on the extensions that fit down the side of the seatbelt turret, I filled the gasp with the discarded washers from the seatbelt tower, so problem easily sorted with parts on hand. Looks good and works well.
