Default Time spent fitting an under tray

hey, just a bit of a wondering really. ive ben scanning through a few places, and people seem to be taking ages to fit there aftermarket undertrays. i brought a powerbronze one today, and expected it to take me a good couple of hours to sort out, but loe and behold it only took me about 50 mins!!
one person said it took him 6 hours to do!!!!
just want to see how long it took other popel to fit.

About 45 minutes. So I clicked an hour, shouldn't take longer than that.

I've got a powerbronze one... It fits over the top of the original (on a K3 it does anyway,) but you need to 'modify' the original undertray slightly for it to fit...

The only part that is a bit of a tw@ is fitting the plastic nuts & bolts (which are used instead of the pop-fittings underneath ) The easiest way I've found is to use a 10mm socket on a screwdriver fitting (if you've got one) & using a small strip of paper, wedge the 10mm plastic bolt into the socket. Feed the plastic screw/bolt from the bottom, up into the under-seat compartment & screw the nut on (whilst holding the bolt in place with a screwdriver) - its also much easier to undo & remove all the screws, pop-fittings, nuts etc. which hold the seat plastics in place first, this will allow you lots of space/manuverability to get the plastic nuts/bolts for the undertray in place...

I've fitted it & removed it many times now... I have the scraped knuckles to proove it
