    For those of you with carpeted shells (mines an ARE MX), how is the Velcro holding your lights up working out? I have 2 National Luna Touch lights I need to mount and I’m trying to decide if Velcro will hold up in the FL heat or should I fab a mount off the windoor screws. Sure wish the fiberglass wasthick enough for short screws

    Why not just through-bolt?

    Use a nice pan head stainless steel screw, put a dab of silicone sealer under the head to create a water-tight seal, and use a nylon lock-nut on the inside?

    Support the gelcoat side of the fiberglass when drilling, to help avoid the gelcoat chipping.

    Mainly because the lights only weigh a few ounces. If it was heavier I would but it’s overkill for these lights. I was looking at it earlier, I think I’m just going to fab up a couple of short brackets and use the screws around the windoor frame to hold then.

    Hot glue will probably hold them to the carpet, if they are that light.

    Can someone get me a measurement of the height opening from the bed to the top of the door on a ARE CX shell? Looking at ordering one but need to make sure opening is big enough to slide bike in an out.

    Cheers!
