No Weeds on vert

Anyone install the No Weeds system on their vert? Considering, but not sure how much modification will be needed.

Ive never heard of those, are they like a remote controlled header-dump? (y-dump ive heard them be called too). What kit did you buy? All of them on the noweeds website show they arent for convertible... or did you mod it somehow?

They are the No Weeds "Dual Mode" electric diverters (electric cutouts). I'm not sure if there were any mods done to make them fit. If you have any questions,
contact Stefano at Nickey Chicago. They did the install for me.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like they removed, and did not reinstall, a major cross brace, just behind the transmission. Did they compensate for that?

Here's the brace I'm talking about: (the pics are not of my car, so many thanks to whoever posted them in another thread (I can't remember where I got them)).

I don't normally drive the car with them open. I put them on for carshows. When they are open, you can really hear the lopey cam in the engine. It's just one more thing in my car to play with.
