When fastening the canopy to the rear bow, I faced a problem not mentioned in the instructions. The #30 holes in the rear bow that were punched in the factory are slightly too small for the screws. This makes the AN526C632R8 screws to act like a tap although the fastening is provided by an AN365-632 nut. This results in the screw head not being always flush to the plastic surface. After calling VANs, I was instructed to enlarge the #30 holes with a #29 drill bit... one more drilling, canopy removing, deburring, canopy mounting cycle which could be avoided with the correct instructions.
