Have you thought about having quater windows put in to help with the huge blind spot when the top is up? One day I intend to have a tailor made one with extra windows. Keep us informed as I know you will.

You'll probably have great difficulty keeping the quarter windows intact, because that area of the hood sustains extreme folding and scrunching when you put the roof down.

Let us know how it goes....

It's a good point and obviously why they aren't there in the first place. The other alternative is to fit blind spot mirrors I have the stick on rectangular ones which I don't like the look of but it's better than side swiping someone or reversing into a post!
