Default How does it work?

The tarp, doors and curtains work quite well thank you. The cage is sized to fit UNDER the existing vinyl. Mine has a bit too much room for sagging when it rains heavily. I slide a piece of 1/2" plywood and some left over Corplast election signs between the bars and the top when it is sitting.

A few changes were necessary. First the existing 1" dia tube frame and diagonals disappeared. As Rob said, there is a strap pocket for the door post which snags the bottom end, hinges behind the driver's ear. The front end slips into a sheet metal fitting and needs a couple of gas line hose and a cotter pin.

The inside leg of the door handle is long enough to hook behind the middle post. Some of the straps might be lengthened, but otherwise the stock and supply of tarps, doors and curtains would function.
