I've got two hours spare this afternoon.....
 
.....is it enough time to fit a Double Bubble?

Is it difficult to do?

Cheers all!

about 10 mins absolute max. You will need a 3mm allen key, a philips screw driver, a little wd40 or similar, and possibly a small pair of pliers.

Undo the lower two 3mm allen bolts (The rubber mounted captive nut may spin around hence the pliars to hold it still)

Take off the trim behind the mirrors (Phillips screwdriver)

Take out screen

Transfer the rubber mounted captive nuts from the old screen and /or fairing.

Put new screen in place.

Coat the rubber things with a little wd/furniture polish, screw the screws back in about 1/4 turn and push through the screen and the holes in fairing(Leaving the top flangeoutside the bodywork, between the screw head and fairing)

Tighten to touch

Replac mirror covers.

Job done :D
