That’s a great point, any idea as to when they will be listing it on the site? I think I heard something similar about a month ago.

Powerful UK did an update and said the panels were almost ready to go for production when a US person mentioned to him about Rotopax. He reached out to Rotopax and they are now working with him to make a version that you can mount Rotopax. I figure it is a couple of months out still.

nailing plywood on a broken window? not sure about that. the random useless square resembles a piece of plywood on a broken window more
painting the square black would be much more expensive that the Lucky option
overall i happy with the purchase. It would of cost 150 to wrap it and i have noticed that black wrap scratches pretty easy. the dots are barely noticeable
only issue is the cost which obviously wasn’t that big of a deal for me since i bought it. i don’t know how much those badges cost but assume atleast 40 bucks each
QUOTE=TheMoke;767012]Defender Square Delete? It looks really really really crap! It’s like nailing plywood to a broken window. If I was you, I would get some duct tape to cover up the square. It will be a lot cheaper and look better to boot.
If you really don’t like the body colored square, get someone to professionally spray the square black. With polishing compound it will look a million times better than a few plastics bungs and a LR badge that looks totally out of place.[/QUOTE]

they are just double sided tape to the glass. i used a plastic pry tool to get some leverage and just used a razor blade to cut the tape. then scraped the blade againest the glass and removed most of the double sided tape
if you ever messed with double side tape it’s not fun to remove. but it’s much easier when it’s on a surface that is hard to damage.
took me maybe 45 mins for the complete i stall. most of the time was removing the tape
