Does anyone know where I can get a couple of roof panel storage bags as I didnt get any when I bough the car and currently I am wrapping the panels in a couple of towels before I put them in the boot.If I cant get any I will have to ask my mum to get her sewing machine out and make me something.I know Leven do them for the Griff and Chim but they only have one large panel.

When I got my S2, I was very impressed to find that the cr@p vinyl roof bags were actually smaller than the roof panels!

They are now stored in bags made from a genuine WW2 army blanket.

There's a real knack to getting them to fit... and one is definately for the passenger (larger) panel...

Dangerous - I'd speak to Leven anyway... they may have a neat solution... you never know...

No, seriously smaller, inches too small. as if made by someone who had never seen (or measured) the roof panels.

I made a bag for mine from some fabric backed PVC - just need to remeber to use strong cotton when sewing it.
Not going to win ant prizes but it does the job.

I've found when it's really cold I can't get them in whatever I try, but when the weather is fairer all is OK.

Sometimes they are so tight it almost reminds me off young.... (nob joke left to Podie)

Maybe I'm just lucky... no problems...
