Just installing a window net and just wanted to make sure it's CAMS compliant.

According to their schedule:

'The window net must cover the opening forward to the centre of the steering wheel and be able to withstand a load of 500N applied at any point. The net may be locally modified to preserve the driver’s view of the external mirror. It must be affixed by means of a rapid release system so that, even with the vehicle inverted it must be possible to detach the mechanism with one hand. To this end, the handle or lever must have coloured markings. A push button release system is authorised provided that it respects the prescriptions of this article. The push button must be visible from the outside, be of a contrasting colour and be marked “press”.'

This is how far I got til I stopped:

So... is it covering what it is supposed to? If I was to sit in the seat it covers my head but it doesn't cover the whole window opening. Does that matter? Also, I'm obviously missing straps to connect it to the side intrusion bars. Any ideas on what I could use (or buy)? Does it need another rod at the bottom? And what's this shit about a 'button release' system? Never seen it before on any cars I've seen.

Anyway would appreciate any help.

Cheers

I have this style. http://www.revolutionracegear.com.au/?PCID=10548&PSO=245&PSID=3100076004&PSV=Primary&CDO=

My side intrusion bars are almost identical to yours. I'm not 100% on the positioning, I just positioned mine as far forward as practical. It's not level with the wheel, but goes from the back of the window opening forward.

The push button thing is an option, the normal spring ones just need the handle to be marked red or something so they can be seen.
