Our Automatic Lid Opener Kit upgrades D350-607-041 Heli-Utility-Basket™ (original design) by removing the prop arm and replacing it with a sturdy stainless steel lid openers. The lid opener mounts to the end of the basket and assists in the opening and closing of the lid as well as holding it in the open position.

Installs on D350-607-041 Basket (long, non split lid). Includes 2 lid openers for installation on Fwd & Aft ends of basket. 1 kit modifies 1 basket.
