Negative on that statement.

All the rear plastics have to be removed in order to get the rear latches in. And it takes a little bit of time to get it adjusted just right. It's not a hard job by any means, but not a 30 minute job either.
Nah, just bolt it in so it attaches to the car safely, takes like 20 minutes, then do miniscule adjustments at home... Not that it matters in this case.

Yep, Suzuka. Barely used, w/all hardware and the OEM stand.

the entire process can take about an hr or more to get it perfectly. very tedious tool time.

Agreed.

10mm gap on the sides is what you should aim for. It can take some time.

Very cool

Suzuka looks so awesome with the OEM hardtop. That's one thing I wish I did to my old Suzuka AP1 before I got rid of it.
