Hey, do you give the arm rod a good wack to get it off in the first place?

Use a separating tool, or hit the side of the hub arm to release it.. there are videos showing you how to do this.

do you have the handbrake pulled when adjusting the brake shoe? and do you have to do both sites before adjusting it inside the car?
@BitsPiecesАй бұрын
Handbrake is in the off position, and yes adjust both sides before adjusting in the car at the Handbrake leaver

Brilliant video - just bought one of these canopies and this is really helpful learning how to fit it properly. I didn’t even know anything about the special fixing screws so this really helped me get my head around that and the template idea is so helpful as I have a 2m canopy to fit so your method will make it much easier and will get it up perfectly fitted. Thank ever so much.

On this canopy the drill size was 10 and the length of the drill holes will obviously just be a bit deeper than the bolt holder

Thx for posting, gave me confidence to do it myself. You didnt mention you had a cup of tea around to help think things through ! :-) . Maybe add how it fared through the winter ? I want one to stop me getting dripped on as I unlock the front door, so maybe I'll find one with a lip on the front edge to direct water off to the side.
