Having just fitted extension sides and aluminium wood hard lid on a Brenderup 1150s, I can confirm the extension sides are extra easy to fit as a diy job. The instructions for fitting the ABS or Alu/wood hard lid are a little bit more difficult but with careful studying of the instructions and using the rule, measure twice (half a dozen times for me) before drilling and you will conquer it easily. Have someone else to double check they are right!
Totally agree with fitting the centre bracket for the jockey wheel as it feels even stronger once done.
I have also fitted a hard lid gallery and rain flaps. I took advice from a previous thread and sealed mine internally using pipe lagging silver tape so it can be dismantled for multiple use (problem never happen).
Picture in my profile gallery if anyone interested and please do not hesitate to contact me if more help needed. Additionally keep tyre pressures up to 35 psi for the perfect ride.

Hi Deacon - are you still about? If so would love to hear about the pipe lagging fix e.g. what you did, why you did it.
