Does anyone have experience with Two Seas (http://www.2seas.com/) solar mounts. How are they to work with? Quality of their hardware? How do they compare to Unirac?

I'm also trying to figure out how their UNI-GR/06H will work with SolarWorld SW175 modules. The rack seems to mount at the bottom of those panels, however the SolarWorld modules don't have mounting holes at that position, and Two Seas does not seem to use the compression clips that Unirac has (so no holes are needed for mounting).

Thanks for any feedback!

We used SolarWorld 175 with the UNI-GR/06H for one of our clients and it worked well however I find the mounts pretty labour intensive and light, but I have not any experience with Uni-Rac. There are 2 seperate rails that are connected to each other through the solar panels. We extra secured the mount around the 2x4 with U-Bolts through roof, because of possible wind loads. There are mounting holes at bottom and top.

Thanks Wilco!
So do I understand correctly the SW175's have mounting holes at the top and bottom for bolting to rails? That's good to know. Their specs on the Web (http://www.solarworld-usa.com/fileadmin/sites/solarworld-usa/pdfs/DB_MO_S_SW_155-175mono_letter_07_05_US_en_Letter.pdf) only show mounting holes on the left and right side of the panel. That had me confused.
