wcb Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 Anyone else have Kool Scoop issues. It seems the "neck" is to short for proper a proper fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartman Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 I ordered one and was not pleased with the fit either. It would work, but I'm not in Florida or Texas and since I was not 100% happy I just didn't proceed with a "permanent" mount of something I didn't like. Just didn't like how it fit on the bottom because the lip landed on the window hinge. I probably could have trimmed with the Dremel and been happier. Im sure if I lived in Texas I would have Looooooved it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWM20f Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 I cut the hinges off - trimmed the bottom to fit above the hinges of original window and use the swinging arm on top to hold in place. When not needed its not in the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcb Posted September 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 Do you have pictures? What is the best way to cut the plastic? Basically yours is in your seat pocket (or other storage) and slide it in on the ground? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWM20f Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 That is correct. Will get some pics and post them around noon. I used a Dremel with the thin cutoff blade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob_Belville Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 I had to trim some off the flanges. Cutting the plexi is no big deal with an abrasive blade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWM20f Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 The kool scoop is thicker than pilot widow so I just swing arm enough to catch the edge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have smoothed the trimming...Sent from my XT1710-02 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
