V-drive Sunpad options

We did it. You need to do a little modification to the tray to get it to fit, but it works great.

Where did you get yours? I might want to put that in my 06.

"If" I had a VD I would prefer the two pc

[shade]

I would prefer a 3 piece to the 2 piece that is on my 07 23LSV. The 2 piece is too big and HEAVY. So be carefull if you leave your rear compartments open to dry while in storage. The 2 piece is so heavy that if left in the open position, the threads of the screws, which mount the strut to the underside of the door, pulled completely out of the door backing material.

I had to drill out the holes in the strut mounting bracket so that I could put larger screws in. Now I don't leave my 2 piece sunpad open for any extended period of time without supporting its weight.

Bunch of wankers...lol

I prefer the look of the 2 piece clean and simple lines, easier access to the warming tray and engine access. I say who likes the new dash….not for me.

on the sunpad. IMHO I dont like the new dash either

I agree with you guys. I like the look of the two piece put prefer the function of the three piece. I don't think the walk over is needed either. Not having a warming tray doesnt bother me. Just turn on the shower and warm up before you go in no big deal. Now about that new dash... I did not care for the shape of it either. It is hard enough to get in the deep grooves around the windshield of my 06 to clean and that looks even harder now. Plus It doesn't have a line to it. Kinda boxy looking. Give me the old dash with the new Malivu and new switch placement and I would be thrilled.

I'm gonna say 2 piece. I always felt the fit and alignment on the 3 piece was hit or miss, and very hard to fix.

I didn't want the "stepover" and i certainly didn't want to pay for it but everythink else about the boat was perfect... so we picked it up thinking we would one day purchase 2 new doors and remove the stepover.... (my wife was likes laying out on the sunpad and didn't want a hard piece of fiberglass in the middle)... BUT.. after having our boat for one season we now love the stepover... if i ordered a new boat i would get it again. It isn't an issue when laying on the sundeck (just throw a towel over it) and i really love that people aren't walking all over my the sundeck.
