Did they install my new canvas upside down?
Post Body

There are no hooks or attachments to hold the flap up when you unzip it which seems weird and now all the water pools in the bottom right corners and drips through the space where the zippers meet. Every install video I see shows them unzipping the opposite way, not to mention the way it leaks in the rain now is wild. The previous owner installed the same canvas inside out so I used to have to unzip it from outside which was annoying but I NEVER had leaks in 8 years. So I bought the same canvas and just wanted them to install it the proper way but Iā€™m beginning to think that didnā€™t happen. Help. I reached out to manufacturer to confirm but I paid 3.5k to do this since I took it off myself years ago and it was such a painā€¦ šŸ„ŗ

Ouch is right!

Iā€™ve done it before and yea itā€™s a pain. But they emailed me back and said they will correct it.

[not loaded or deleted]

Yea I questioned him on the price too and was tempted to do it myself cuz I have in the past but it suxked and I didnā€™t wanna do it again.

Same- unzips from the top and just hands there.

That is the correct emotion.

It wasnā€™t. I donā€™t wanna out the shop Iā€™m just glad they are going to fix it even though I wonā€™t be back in the state until summer.

[not loaded or deleted]

It was not. Donā€™t wanna out the shop but I spent a lot of money with them. Iā€™m just glad they will fix it.

No they charged 3.5 for refurbishing the top and installing the new canvas. I had already paid for the canvas separately and brought it to them. The refurbished top looks amazing and it was mildew proofed resealed and repainted so all the mold is gone so thatā€™s amazing! The installā€¦ not so much. They quoted 16 hours to do it at 190 an hour and I went back and forth with him but was out of time to do it myself and needed to get south so I said fuck itā€¦

Yessss the best reviewed shop in NC that only works on these thingsā€¦

[not loaded or deleted]

What do you mean? Itā€™s the same shape whether upside down or right side up, so it fits either way as you can seeā€¦ and itā€™s the exact same canvas as the old one.

[not loaded or deleted]

They are gonna make it right thank goodness but I wonā€™t be able to get it fixed until Iā€™m back in the summer.

It was never installed backwards. It was inside out when I bought it and I didnā€™t realize for years until someone pointed it out in a vanagon group haha. I just had to climb outside to zip or unzip and thought it was weird. But yea this time they installed it upside down and the manufacturer from bus depot confirmed it was indeed installed upside downā€¦ so thatā€™s fun. But the shop just told me they would fix it but Iā€™m not back in NC until May so I will have to deal with it until then during the rainiest winter in Florida ever šŸ˜‚

So frustrating! My PO put it on INSIDE OUT so I used to have to zip and unzip from the outside!

[not loaded or deleted]

What do I clip it with??? There are no clips. Also it leaks when it rains from the zipper points so no, I would rather have it installed properly.

[not loaded or deleted]

I have done it myself 3 years ago and didnā€™t want to do it again! But totally up to the individual!

[not loaded or deleted]

The shop that installed it has agreed to fix it but I will have to wait until Iā€™m back in NC in Mayz

[not loaded or deleted]

The fall down is itā€™s upside down and because of that if it rains it leaks solidly through the bottom zippers because it isnā€™t installed correctly. Not to mention there is no way to ā€œclip it upā€ so if it was installed the right way I could simply zip it down without trying to figure out how to make it stay open. No one can see in it anyways so privacy isnā€™t an issue and I love being able to see blue sky etc.

What necessities? My bed is underneath, I donā€™t sleep up top.
