We will have a very nice solution coming in a coupla months. We've been refining the brackets so that they fit with no drilling or mods. It will have some nice features not currently available.

I didn't have to make any modifications what-so-ever with the Saikou Michi set-up.

With the Exige you have to drill a hole in one of the metal panels that holds the engine hatch prop.
