A simple and effective method to help install the hood
with ease without bruised fingers,broken windscreen,torn hood or expressing
certain expletives.
Fastening
the hood all round pressing down the swivel levers and the hood is evenly
tensioned with a satisfying "clunk". To fit,simply remove the existing
hood frame pivots and replace with the new quality "Swivel Pivots" using
the same screw holes.No need to drill extra holes or modify the frames.
The kit comprises a pair of ‘Swivel Pivots’, stainless
steel fixing screws and full
fitting instructions. When the hood is required simply
secure the hood to all the rear fixings as normal,turn the levers to lower
the hood frame and secure the hood onto the windscreen with ease.Making
sure the frame is in the fully extended position,turn the levers to the
over centre locking position and the hood is tensioned and safely installed.A
"Doddle", no more pulling on the hood and risking a broken screen. Precision
high-pressure brass diecasting.

I've got to share this with you; erecting
the hood on LULU ('93 +4, 4-str) is normally one of the lesser-known Labours
of Hercules - last time, working on my own, it took me 3 HOURS; a pair
of engineers pliers; a book of spells; a swearing dictionary; a box of
Elastoplast and a vatful of
I was a sad little Morganeer with mangled
fingers and thumbs and in consequence I had just about decided to mortgage
She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed and the brats to purchase a Simmonds conversion
when I saw John Taylor's advert in 'Miscellany' this month; his four-seater
conversion kit consists
The job took me about an hour to complete
(most of the time taken up in carefully drilling out a rivet on each side
of the hood frame). No problems were encountered (apart from breaking
a pilot drill bit - TIP: Remember to set the drill to NON-hammer action
before you start...) and the result? Working on my own, I can now
get the roof up well within five minutes (including a full minute for smirking);
connect hood to windscreen, drop the levers, a small tug over the rear
turnbuckles, work the levers again to tension the hood and slide the new
latch forward to lock everything in position. Pure magic - and a
small fraction of the price I was considering paying. Give the man
a medal - I'm actually
