No rain gutters required if it hinges on the opposite side.

''opposite' side'
I agree.
Mine would only bifurcate the shell down the center, leaving the driver side inert, exposing the 'top' and all gaps to hurricane force, wind-driven rain.
Milwaukee, Delta, Porter-Cable, and such don't engineer for those conditions.

The nice thing is that you can use hinge/latches from '40s Buick or 50's International hoods.
Flip both latches for easy on and off.
