Photos Needed - wink, wink..nudge, nudge
Discussion
I need some photos of folding hoods, specifically how the join between the fabric and the rear edge of the glass has been done on cars with windows like ours, ie where the window has a square edge which slopes back slightly. Based on what has been suggested to me so far I've made this up as a working example starter-for-10 (based on the way Morgan aparantly do it). But if there's a better way of doing it I'd like to know.....
The catch, literally, is the top left corner of the window. This is the tricky bit because if there is a continous flap around this corner you won't be able to open the door.
Thanks in advance

This one's a Stag hood which has a gutter along the top edge, steel rule to emphasise.
Poor photo sorry.
The b post section has a rubber moulding underneath (like the targa panel edge) with a sort of hem in the mohair covering the rubber.
When it fell apart without the rubber it was draughty and noisy.
The S hoop has the rubber moulding but lacks the return in the mohair, which I hadn't previously noticed
The Stag is different as the b post it meets is solid but the principal is more or less the same.
