I was very happy with the delivery service as I live in New Zealand and it only took 1 week to be delivered from date of order . I am very happy with the style bar and windblocker although the style bar could have been 5 or 6 mm longer to fit easier between seat belt mounts but overall I managed to fit it without too much trouble . Overall a very stylish and satisfying addition to my MX5 NA model .

Great product, excellent delivery service, and wonderful value at the discounted price. Absolute doddle to fit (mainly 'cause the son-in-law did it!), but the longest job was getting the protective paper off the plexiglass wind blocker. It shredded, left residual patches of glue and generally caused a great deal of bad language, but as the wind blocker was free I suppose I shouldn't complain.I continue to be impressed with the quality of products and service at MX5 parts

As with all MX5 Parts super fast delivery, next day. I was also pleasantly surprised when I came to order the roll over bars that they had just been reduced so saving £50 +.The bars are of good quality and nice and chunky. I have the factory sound board/wind deflector so that is why I choose these bars.All though the instructions are of help they do appear to get bogged down and not all of the text and pictures directly relate to what you have on your MX5 so a little thought is involved but it isnt a difficult job.Some points to note.... The plastic caps that go onto the seat belt bolt will not fit with the new bar in place so a little careful trimming of the plastic is required to reinstate them. Also the protective backing on the wind blocker is an absolute pain to remove. Dont be tempted to soak with water to help remove it like I did, it just makes maters worse. The three clear straps supplied to attach the wind blocker are cheap and not really made or fit well. One of mine was broken on delivery so I binned them in preference to three black lock ties. Much better looking.With the bars now fitted they look great and look the business with the roof down.

Arrived next day, fitted within 45 minutes and looks great, compliments the cream leather interior of my 2000 Icon. Very pleased with the product and service provided, good value for money, all I want now is some dry sunny days.

As ever great delivery service form MX5 Parts and a quality piece of kit. However, as many others have already reported the instructions are not very clear at all and it is probably best to read them then throw them away. I found it is best to get the bar mounted squarely on top of the seat belt turrets and then work out how to attach the brackets to the sides of the turret with a range of spacers and washers. Took about an hour to fit and looks great.

Great customer service and delivery. Ordered on Thursday 05/10/12 at 11:00 am, received Friday 06/10/12 at 11:00am. Started fitting at 12noon and finished at 2pm. Needed a bit of thinking to fit but looks great, all we need now is the sun to show it off. Gazza MK2.5 (very happy). great price.

Arrived the following day. Looks really good on the car. I was a bit worried after reading some of the reviews but the style bar fitted perfectly. Have to say though I struggled trying to understand the instructions. Took me about 3 attempts before I realised how it fitted. I think it would be better having instructions without the pictures which I found confusing. If you are contemplating a style bar go for it, you wont be disappointed,

So pretty & very easy to fit. If my pathetic girlie wrists had been strong enough to undo the bolts (& I'd known how to use a socket set properly!!) I could have done this on my own, as it was with Hubby's help it was done in under 30 minutes & that included having to go off & finding some washers because for some reason there weren't any put on my Mk2 originally. Just love these bars!
