why do you want to do that? manual hoods weigh less, and are quicker to put up!!

Maybe, but you don't need to get out of the seat with a leccy one.

Hmmmmm, not really Han as you're covered by the rain quicker in a leccy one as you're already in the car, than you would be in a manual one as you're actually stood outside in the rain.
