they are pretty easy to fit, but very time consuming.
My mate back in the UK fitted the 'Busboys' safaris, which he ended up changing. The Creative Safaris are so much better, much stronger and just look a better product and come with everything needed for installation.
These are the first safaris I have had and I cant wait to go for a cruise.

Went for a drive today...... bloody freezing, my eyes were watering and my cheeks and lips were flapping about like 10 G force on my face and I was only going 40mph.
Hey, but it was bloody brilliant.

I want one of those world war 2 fighter helmets with the goggles, anyone got a set??

Its great Dave trouble is your eyes look as though you have had no sleep for 6 days, your hair is wind blown back like chewy on Star wars and you get flies stuck in your teeth from laughing while they're up.

Other than that, brilliant

get outta here !!!
They are a bloody good price, as far as I know they are the strongest safaris on the market and made from Alluminium so they will never rust like the American alternatives.
They are made to exacting standards, as close to original as you can get.
Would never buy anything else.

Cheers

The top colour is VW polar white, The bottom colour is made up.
I was looking for the bottom colour for ages until my daughter bought a new hand bag, when she came in the house with it, that was it the colour I wanted. So I took the bag into the paint shop and they matched it spot on.

You get some funny looks I can tell you!!!!

I can easily paint a colour sample and send it to you, no problem.

We have the rear ones, for early splits, we are just trying to source the fronts.
