Does anyone have any ideas where to get one of these? Or something similar that will do the trick. Ideally I need one with loops attached so that I can hang the hardtop from the garage ceiling.

The main dealer wants £160 odd

>>MAzda want £80 for an MX5 one, and Honda want £55 for an S2000 one

A company called Autotec (or Autotek) do a padded cover with wall fitting kit for a variety of cars but they are quite expensive. I was trying to find one for my sister's (not mine - honest) MX5 and they wanted £140. A quick search on Google got this down to £116.

It may seem expensive but it's a very good product and £116 is a lot cheaper than a respray on a dented/scratched roof.

Thanks, but I can't find it. I've googled autotec, auto-tech, autotek and autotech with no results.

I've sent the wife to the Honda dealers to measure up an S2000 to make sure it fits

Found the web address I used before - impacta.co.uk I just tried it again though and their server is down.

MR2 one is £140 though. Try shopping around and you might get it cheaper though I'm not sure where you would start.

The alternative would be to trade the MR2 in for a girls'car such as the MX5 as it seems easier to get "nice" accessories for them.
