Lovely product works well easy to install

Installation was easy as the panels are thin, lightweight and their flexibility allows them to conform to suit, I had them attached to my van in minutes

Was easy to install and connect, wishing I hadn't glued them down so well now as I'm already thinking of ripping them out and replacing
