Yep, the schnapps must've been flowing like a broken water main the day they came up with that thing...lol!!:rofl::rofl:

I reckon it was typical Germanic arrogance....

"Nein! Ve CAN make zis verk! Ve shall show ze verld zat Bavarian cargo cover designs are superior to all other cargo cover designs!"

Lol!!

Give em credit for recognizing the mistake and going with what works. :thumbup:

Yep gotta give 'em props for that.:thumbup:

:iagree:
The later version matches what everyone else have been using since 1985. You guys and gals who have the folded blind shade with gears must remove that thing and HIDE it in the garage. Eye sore, not a cover for the "good stuff" in the back.:nanana:

Recommendation: Replace with the upgraded later version. EBay part out specials.
