HEADPHONES Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 This is the second time I've randomly lost one. They've never been a tight secure fit. Must have just fell out when I opened the boot without me realising it. Would be OK if it happened at home but I was out and about. Stupid design 1 Quote
davey_83 Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 Not good at all pal and you'd never know until you next go to open the boot 😔 1 Quote
Jack94 Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 How frustrating. Regarding replacement I'd highly recommend the ones from opentop, they easily pop the tailgate past the latch even with the heavy V1 spoiler. 1 Quote
HEADPHONES Posted March 18, 2023 Author Posted March 18, 2023 It was an OPENTOP one that fell out!!!!! 1 Quote
350zeta Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 Yeah the ones mentioned above Opentop work really well! Quote
HEADPHONES Posted March 18, 2023 Author Posted March 18, 2023 Are you guys with OPENTOP springs noticing that they are looser fitting in the hat h than the OEM ones? Just put my old OEM one back on (already had 2 rubber washers added but I added a further 3 pennies now ) and it's alot tighter and snug fitting than the OPENTOP one on the other side. Quote
Jack94 Posted March 19, 2023 Posted March 19, 2023 From memory I think they might have been a slightly looser fit, but that never caused me any issues. I had them installed for over 2 years and never had one fall out 1 Quote
Olly350z Posted March 19, 2023 Posted March 19, 2023 When you guys have bought the open-top ones, have you bought the complete springs or the kits to swap over your existing oem ones? Quote
Jack94 Posted March 19, 2023 Posted March 19, 2023 I went for the complete ones seeing as they were only £10 extra 1 Quote
rodgeevans Posted March 19, 2023 Posted March 19, 2023 Yeah also got the complete ones, and so far seem tighter than a nuns... but as you have mentioned this before I did contemplate putting a dab of glue on them to be safe Quote
HEADPHONES Posted March 20, 2023 Author Posted March 20, 2023 Revisited one of the car park I used the day I lost my popper and saw this amongst the leaves...... 4 Quote
ShortPaul Posted March 20, 2023 Posted March 20, 2023 Nice one, maybe try your luck with lottery 🙂 1 Quote
