Where did you get that the cord looks very thick and untidy?
Did they not supply you with fitting instructions?

I bought mine off the club at lower lode they even fitted it for me. It looked much neater than that.

This is not one of ours, the bungee is too think and it is threaded into the clip incorrectly, where did you purchase this please?

 

[Meoncoast]

Sorry to say but I bought a bungee from the forum shop recently with no instructions. Seems we have to find our way via peoples experience and not manufacturers instructions. I don't feel this is right.

Likewise. I bought both a bungee and a club sticker - despite the wording in the listing, there were no instructions for either.

Neither did I receive the members' discount. I emailed a couple of times, received no reply, so gave up. When I subsequently bought a Topper, it came from Khyam and did come with instructions.

Are you telling me you don't know how to put a sticker on?

OK, thanks. JW

No instruction with my order either.

I did see a picture on an another supplier site that showed hooking the plastic joiner part in the roof elevating scissors & then walking around to join up. The joint was then put to the rear.
I haven't tried it as yet nor can I find the site again.
Might have been where draining boards can be sourced.

Stickers > I'd put on the glass as they can be removed in future without risk of paint damage or tell tale signs on paintwork.

Bubbles can be removed with a credit card.

I must be looking for the wrong thing because I can't find it. Sure to be a Spec's Saver moment, but if you could help that would be great. Thx JW.

 

[WelshGas]

It must be my generation, or just me being rich in common sense, but instructions for fitting a Sticker or a Bungee cord.

 

[calikev]

My mistake I thought I put the video in there I will look at getting it added here is some written instructions in the meantime

 

[SimonB]

Just been looking for this, hope it helps.

I can't believe some people on this forum, can't fit a bungee, can't put a sticker on a vehicle, don't read Cali manuals. Yet buy a £50k vehicle. I have words for these people but not acceptable i think on the forum.

Are you saying that nobody should ask for help or at least some guidance on here??

Please please be carefull putting on the kyham I had one I slid it in the awning channel passenger side threw it over the roof started to raise the roof and it got caught on the corner of the roof and as it was fixed into the awning channel it tore the topper and buckled my roof when I told vw they didn't want to know
I had to pay an independent garage over £800 to straighten it. I have now got a
Brandrup isotop. Please be carefull as I believe it's a design fault

That is bad, do you have an electric roof?
