Baracus (aka Steve) said:
Finally got round to fitting mine yesterday, No issue's at all and very easy job :)

Just love the pose now droppin the roof before gettin in and pressin the button when i get out to close it and lock it again :D

plus when i leave it parked on the drive with the roof down i don't need to leave my chair to raise it back up :D

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Next week, my turn :) .
 
And another from the USA:
FYI...
I have had mine installed for about 10 days now.
I was getting intermittent functionality.
I was beginning to think I had a loose wire or connection.
The roof would open and/or close properly as I would push the console buttons.
It would also operate from my drivers seat using the key.

However, most of the time when I am out of the car and away 10 feet, I can't get the roof to close.
Frustrating!

I now, always, hold the key to my throat or head and press the buttons in sequence.

WORKS EVERY TIME!!!!!!! :lol:

Goofy? Yes!

Amazing! Jeremy , with Top Gear, was right!
 
Dice - did you get yours done yet or am I last :oops:

fitted it this morning (in the blazing sunshine :D ) ... went for the soldered approach and found it a relatively easy job :thumbsup:

works a treat - very pleased indeed :D 8)
 
During the many opening / closing routines last week during the holiday, I found one oddment:

- If the driver window is down, and the passenger side up, closing the roof will close the driver window and then open it again.

If I have the windows both the same, the issue does not occur.

That's interesting you say that as I closed my roof remotely without checking my windows and came back too see my drivers window open!

Thought I might have been the anti trap through so did a window reset... However now whenever I close my roof remotely I always double check my windows.
 
The risk is when opening a parking barrier and leave the window down when parking ...
 
I can't repeat it. I start with the driver's window fully open and the passenger's window full closed. I then give three clicks to raise the roof and the passenger window opens, the roof closes and then both windows close.
Is it worthwhile you doing a recalibration of the windows maybe?
 
I tried that, no difference.

It goes fully up, then half down again but if the windows are both fully up, there is no issue, nor if the windows are fully down. Not a problem for me, just something I noticed.

mine is doin exactly the same thing,

pass window up and driver side down, when locking the pass goes down half way the roof goes up, both windows go up but the drivers comes back down half way again. If both are down the pass window works fine but not the drivers. If both are up there is no issue.

Not tried resetting the window yet though
 
Looks like they are all faulty, so we have to remove them and send them back for a refund......


mind you, there is no way he is having mine back.... its too bloody good :thumbsup:
one of the best mods i have ever fitted. So good I did it twice...
:rofl:
 
I seem to have a few problems with mine...

Some inconsistent closing issues mainly, roof open seems OK.

Latest issue, if windows are both down, roof closes, both windoes close, then passenger window opens to half way!

I've adjusted the pots to death but still can't get closing to work repeatedly! Have checked one-ticuh close on windows, reset them etc.. All the same!

Not one of mine, must be a Reinhold.
 
If it is Reinhold, then I wish you good luck as they are an awful company to deal with (in my experience). I had an issue with a unit for someone else that they just blatently refused to deal with, never replied to emails or anything.

Swore I would never touch a Reinhold product again ...

Yes, it is a Reinhold, so far communication has been quite good... Still not resolved the issue though.

Well done Gaptech!
Having read the ENTIRE thread, I'm quite impressed -- and very interested in having one of your combo remote & OTH units shipped to me here in the US. But I would prefer to wait on resolution of the window synch'ing issues that a couple members have recently posted about.
Is there a cut-off date after which the Group Buy prices and terms can no longer be honored?
Have you heard from any others who are having similar issues?
(I note that you have not been able to replicate the issue in your car.)
Thanks
