Hoping to buy a Leader in the near future. I will need to pick it up in my van but its a low roofline Trafic and realise that it would not go in with the screen still fitted.
So my question is how easy is it to remove the screen should I decide to buy it and transport it home. Its a new screen and I don't want to risk breaking it.
Thanks

Re: Leader Sreeen
I've never had to remove one myself but I'd think it's nominally quite easy - 6 screws/nuts across the top of the' front shield' panel and the 2 nylon eye-bolts that attach to the tops of the supporting stays - if it's a new screen it should all be fairly recently put together and should have a very good chance of coming apart relatively easily!
Possibly more of an issue are the 2 tall stays - assuming you need to get them off as well - if they've been recently fitted they should (again) come off relatively easily.The 2 'fixing joints' (T2582) shouldn't be able to turn in the panel so the stay nuts should(!) unscrew to release the stays.
The point to be careful of might be not losing any of the short spacer-tubes that go in the screen rubber around 4 of the screen mounting screws to stop the screen being pinched too tightly (and possibly also keep an eye on the 2 rubber outer corner pieces just in case one is loose enough to fall out).
There's a component diagram/list of Drag's website that might be useful (if you've not found it already).
