I have assembled and fitted them, but have not mounted them on the vehicle, since I only intend to have them on, while in use . They seem sturdy, and look pretty good. I wish they were made for more of an "on & off" type of temporary usage, as I intend to use them, rather than the much more permanent type of mounting, the hardware seems designed for . > The Plastic plugs, that cover the heads of bolts, that I intend to leave uncovered so they can be more easily removed, which, IF it was being left in a motel parking lot, over night, might be a little risky in some locations . It would be ideal for me, if they were somehow, lockable, and then could be unlocked . But they seem very good otherwise.
Would have been nice if the instructions had been in English, instead of German, here in the U.S., but its not hard to figure them out .
