Noticed one problem when I match drilled the canopy skirt to the plexiglass canopy. The most forward, upper row hole in the side skirt just barely hits the underlying plexiglass. I have 1/2 of a hole on the left side in the plexi (the drill bit wandered a bit cause it caught right on the edge of the plexi) and have a hole as close to the plexi edge as you could imagine under the right side skirt. I think I am lucky the plexi did NOT crack.
Compared my results with three other builders and all experienced the same.
This appears to be a design issue. I sent Van's an e-mail.
DO NOT drill these two holes before you mark them and check to see if there is enough plexi behind the hole!!
