Message	IS--- Sorry to burst your bubble but it doesnt matter which way they are mounted. I spoke to the owner of Aerocatch personally and he told me it makes no difference either way. They do not simply "pop" open under force. Think what you want, but I cant get much better than the owner of the company telling me personally. (we actually check this before mounting) Also, car weighed in at 3100lbs on the dot with 1/2 tank of gas. Has full heat and air/vent and the option of hooking up AC, just no compressor at the moment hooked up. Also has power steering.
