I'm too short to reach the skylight knob when the top up. I used to just
lower the top a bit when I needed to open or close the skylight, but now
that I have installed a Buese Shelf(TM) on the crossbar, it's a bit more
complicated because whatever's on the shelf needs to be removed before
lowering the lid. What would be cool would be some kind of extension for
the knob, dangled down where I can reach it.*

*Of course I could haul something into the van to stand on. I like to
keep the floor uncluttered though, it being somewhat small, so most
floor items get moved outside when camping.
