all we need is some kind of diagram to see how to fit it
thanks all

I think there are a number of variations on the theme; my ENAC has the bottom of the legs fitted into the flat boot floor that is part of that kit; but others I've seen are very different... Manufacturer? pics, we like pics... :D

James Wallace of this parish had a conversion kit off me a few weeks ago. I swapped for a towbar. He put it up for sale recently.

There were no instructions on how to fit.

Found my original advert

I edited my above post after I re-read your original. There were no instructions on how to fit.

The link shows the frame in place, I had the two mounting holes in my 2cv on the frame above the rear quarter lights,which is where the frame hings from,the other 4 fixing points are already there on he inside of the boot on the strengthening ribs,I think they take the snap in type of fixing with a captive nut. The frame that holds the tailgate up hinges from the rear shelf/hammock brackets,they have the holes in already. That support frame sits in clips fixed near the bottom of the rear screen..

I hope this helps,I have to admit I've never fitted one but worked it out from seeing them in place and the known fixing points in my car,either way I would suggest it would become more obvious how it's done when you offer it up,good luck :-)

Hi ayjay
I've fitted two in the past. It's basically what Banjo said.
There is (or may be) a metal tab on the top of the rear window frame that needs to be removed ( or bent out of the way, I forget now). The way the roof hinges it doesn't go back into its slot.
When I spoke to uncle Roy before buying mine from Club Cassis, he said he didn't sell them because it is possible for the back window to blow out. I find mine so useful I am still happy to live with that risk.
Hope this helps.
John.
