Eclipse V4, V2 & V1 - How to Identify Eclipse Versions

Which Version Eclipse Umbrella Do you Have?

There are Three versions of the Eclipse 

~ Eclipse Version 4 (V4) Current

~ Eclipse Version 2 (V2) Sold until Mid 2024

~ Eclipse Version 1 (V1) Sold until Mid 2017

The reason there is a V1, V2 & V4 Eclipse is due to upgrades over the years, resulting in most  V4 spare parts not suitable for the previous version,

some of the V2 spare parts don't working with the V1, due to this it is important to correctly identify which version you have when ordering spare parts.

Version 1 (V1) has a different Slider Car locking mechanism to the Version 2 (V2)
