for those with the arb ascent, how are they going?
no issues with central locking?
how is the dust and water proof-ness of these??
Ive got the arb tango hardlid, and the central locking has died, the touch pad to unlock the lid has stopped working, and it sucks dust like no tomorrow (thats with the dust defence kit installed). they should have used a locking point in each corner, rather than one lock point in the middle of the tailgate, as it flexes badly on dirt roads......
its only been on the ute for 7 months, so im negotiating with arb at the moment. Im thinking about going down the ascent path.....
cheers.

actually I will correct myself, canopy's are water tight but tubs are not. You will get small amount of water in through the area where tailgate shits with tub

Had it back as it leaked took it back and they tightened it up noticed then noticed that the back window dose not sit flat on the tailgate leaving a gap between the rubber seal and tailgate. TJM have stayed that the tub is not sitting square on the car now they are saying that the tailgate is not square. Seems to they don’t know what they are doing or give a shit once they took my $$$. Are canopies meant to be water tight?

The flexisport, toyota, aeroklas and caddy canopies all ended up at least 300 more and i would of got less. Not to mention before i actually went into the shops i called up to get a rough price and Arb were the only ones who knew their price and didnt greatly under quote me. Overall ARB were really good and looking forward to getting my ascent.
