Default Cruising Shelf

Just got my Cruising Shelf in, unfortunately the Instructions are in Japanese. Anyone has an English version or have knowledge on its installation?

I must admit I am very curious about the shelf. I would like to see some install photos. Thanks for sharing.

I can translate it too if you like. I guess being trilingual does come in handy at times. Besides, i would like to know more info on it too.

While I have seen two fingernail size photos of the SC 430 cruising shelf, I, too would like to see more photos and a detailed description of this expensive accessory.

Easy to install?

Plastic, fiberglass, etc.?

Texture of surface? (Smooth, Porous, etc.)

Does it cover both the rear floor and the rear of the headrests?

Any leather used?

Color all matte black?

Can it be repainted another color?

Waiting time for delivery?

Aside from cost, any criticism?

Any other comments after coming into actual possession of the cruising shelf?

I'll take some pics this weekend of all the parts that came in. Unfortunately, the instructions (aside from being in Japanese) is not very detailed in comparison to the amount of parts that came in. What Romini provided is the only instructions I recieved.
