Anyone know of a good hood repair type person who can stitch part of my hood to the rear screen in one small corner, it doesn't leak yet and the rest is in excellent nick so not worth replacing, so any ideas people?

I had the same problem and got quoted £150 for replacing the rear screen - I repaired it myself with needle and thread. It was slow work but at least it will stop it getting any worse.

This a true to life quote, I cannot sew to save my life but I might have to have a go unless I can find a cheap pro to do it!!

It happened to me last year - I bought this stitcher from Frosts - it's not perfect but with a bit of practise it can look good enough Until more goes and it all needs replacing.
