I found this post : http://cal-look.no/lounge/index.php?topic=470.0 ages ago, but the link to the goods doesn't work!

Are the adjustable standoffs still available? anyone got any pics/details?

Sounds like a great compromise, I havn't driven my bug since Bug In thanks to the monsoons we are having in the UK! having the option to close the decklid would be ideal!


I find my motor runs way stronger, and cooler with standoffs, but it would be awesome to be able to close them at will, and even just have a smaller gap!


Cheers,

Steve

Hi. I got a set. What a pain in the as to fit.  Sad

I am not sure which was worse, working out how to fit them with a poor set of pictures and swiss instructions or the soothsayers telling me they would not work.  Grin Tongue

In the end we found they do fit. When in the "stood off" position I have to apply a finger tip of pressure to make sure the top of thelid does not catch when I open adn close it. Other than that they are fine.

PM if you want my details to talk through, apart from the cost, they are a great piece of kit and I would not run without them.
