Hey all! Considering this as an option for my 60 series. Any complaints? Things bumping around while driving or sliding everywhere as you open/close, messing with the latch/wiring, sturdy enough to stand/sit on?

It is pretty sturdy - you can stand or sit on it. Doesn't really mess with the wiring either. It did make me cut off the support springs for my 100 which made the tailgate dangerously heavy. It was no longer safe for my wife or kids to open it!Hey all! Considering this as an option for my 60 series. Any complaints?

@Tennessee80 I have no complaints about the carpeted lid. The lid has only been installed since April 2020 so I can't give you a long term wear report, but it has minimal wear at this time.

With that in mind, Know that I am not affiliated with this company and I am only giving the information which they have given to me. I am just a messenger for Huracan. They were so pleased how the first group, 2nd and 3rd group buys worked so they reached back out to ask if I would do it again. I just want to help the MUD community for all of the info I have found and the times I have been helped, etc.
I encourage you to do your own research on products and vendors and I am not responsible for order issues, shipping delays, etc. Those issues would need to be communicated directly with the vendor, although they have been extremely responsive to any correspondence with the previous group buy and also setting this one up. Customer service has been outstanding IMO.
Compromised!... the kids and wife did some complaining that they would miss the carpet to sit on . So I figured best of both worlds. So far it works fine.I just ordered one of these for my 62, and I went ahead and got the one finish with the marine grade carpet. I have seen the other texture, which is a black powder coated looking finished, and for some reason I wanted to try something different.
Has anyone had experience with the marine carpet version? I am thinking that things won’t slip around as much that are set on there.
I should be getting mine next week!
Actually, this is a pretty clever idea. How did you hinge/secure this?Compromised!... the kids and wife did some complaining that they would miss the carpet to sit on . So I figured best of both worlds. So far it works fine.

I am not @Tennessee80 but my marine carpet is holding up fine since installed 4/20.@Tennessee80 how's your marine carpet holding up? I plan to get my next one with the carpet - the powder coat on my 80 is a bit slippy - more for tools and drink cups and such.
