    Definitely another meso high quality piece. One of the other guys mentioned how hard it was to get back in the original light housing and I had the same issue. There's two tabs on opposite corners that will have a hard time going up without breaking them. I did a combination of filing those slightly down and then filing two of the grooves on the Meso 3D printed piece. After that it fit up there a lot better and I did not break any of those tabs.

    Just finished the install. I had to pickup some replacement hardware today to fit the replacement jack nuts I ordered off Amazon last night but it's done now and it looks great. Still a fairly easy install, just a little tricky to seat the jack nuts in the dome light area. Thanks @MESO!

    Haha not even close.

    I typically buy two to have a back up in case a led or whatever goes bad. That way I can just swap in the back up and I’m good to go.

    I have sold off a majority of the collection, and have even offered up parts when others have been looking for them while they wait for Meso to restock.

    I have also gifted some of my doubles away , to those needing them more than me.

    If thats part of the problem, then yes I’m guilty.

    Installed mine (non sunroof) this afternoon. It was a bit more challenging to line up those bolts than I expected. You really have to press upward on that thing to get it to line up. It's a nice and snug fit. I ended up using a long wooden dowel that I propped between the seat cushion and the rack to push up on it while I was getting the last two screws lined up. It might have been complicated by the fact that I was also installing the handle retention kit, and you're fighting against the springs inside those handles the whole time. I also didn't have a helper. I tried to get my 9 year old son to help me, but he was complaining that his arms were sore after about 5 seconds of pressing upward on it, so I gave up on that idea. I'm also very thankful for the extra hardware. There were two extra jacknuts in the pack, and I ended up using them both. One stripped out because I didn't thread the install screw deep enough before I installed it. The other one ended up getting cross threaded (again, I was having a hard time getting it lined up just right), and the jacknut actually ripped into two pieces.

    Haven't really decided what I'm going to mount to it yet. I threw a small trauma pack up there for now, but it hangs down a little lower than I want it to. I'm probably going to order some lower profile pouches. I also might try to double this up with a Blue Ridge Overland "attic" net, to see if I can shove some blankets or jackets up there also. If that doesn't work, I may just bungee that stuff onto the rack itself. Haven't really decided yet.

    Here's a few photos.

    It's not a meso, unfortunately, but here's my set up thus far. So nice to have things organized somewhat.

    I love the setup, but I'm not going to lie... that axe/hatchet up there makes me cringe. It can make a moderate collision become a fatal collision in an instant.

    Y'all suck. My rack is at home and I'm not. Not even sure when I'll be home.

    How did you end up attaching the quickfists to the rack?
