Hi Dee, I just installed the PVC type about a month ago, they are by far the easiest and simplest to install but weigh more than the balsa wood type, I started out going that way but ended up with the PVC ones. I really like the looks the increase in cruise was 5 to 7 mph.

Hi Dee I see you have a Model II so the struts are most likely 7/8" like mine, the PVC is designed for 1", what I did was wrap the struts with leading edge tape (it was 6" wide and heavy duty) about every 24" and the PVC then snapped in place nicely. If you go that way and want any more tips on installation just e mail me.
