I sure do like mine, but make sure you get the ones with the slots in them. When I was setting mine up it was a pain in the butt to stop and take the bolts all the way out readjust the screen then put the bolts back in. I noticed about two weeks after I had ordered mine that he modified the kit so that you do not need to take the bolts all the way out to adjust the brackets. Makes it look much easier and faster without the problem of losing little washers or parts. Sure wish I had waited a few weekes before ordering. Wait a minute maybe I can get just the slotted pieces.

Just installed mine yesterday and it looks like a great product. I haven't had the chance to test them yet, but with the upgrade for the tool-less adjustment it takes about 10 seconds to adjust the screen to a different position.

I have read about them, but never got to see them. Would someone mind posting a closer pic of them so I can see what I'm getting for my 85 bucks.

There you go. Yet that is the Lightning setup, but it is almost the same thing. I got the Uly version on the way, as far as I know the only difference is how it attaches to the different fly screens.

Just ordered a set of brackets and other farkles from Iain. Iain pointed out that this is a good time to purchase based on the currency conversion rate. Much better than in July of this year. Iain is great to work with. Prompt and answered all my questions.

Any idea how long for shipment to Colorado? I see a couple things here that look fairly simple to duplicate and very useful. Being readily available, I'd just as soon buy them then fabricate them.

I ordered mine earlier this month, along with a new 19" windshield. Came in two boxes shipped the same day. One arrived within 1 week, the other took 2-1/2 weeks. Who knows what happened??

They were sent on the same day so that is weird! They were in 2 boxes to keep the weight below 2kg or the cost was over $65!

Website is now directed to a new one so don't use the link above, go to the homepage at www.palmer-products.co.uk
