It just rest on the rear shelf. I had a few drop heads and never had it blow upward.

Thanks Michael, I will give a go when the car is back on the road - probably August now.

I found the Spitfire window blows all over the place when not secured.

I went from Grimsby to Bolton Abbey and back (250+ miles) at the weekend with mine layed on the back shelf and no problems at all.

I curl mine around to form a tube (top part resting on the deck.) No bends, no stress on bottom part, etc. Just seemed the best way to do it and very tidey.

Just unzip all the way round and let it rest on the rear shelf. It's one benefit of not having a glass rear window in a convertable. (I can't think of any others)

as above it just rests on the back shelf same as the mx5 and stays put....[:D][:D]


the project at birth, watch it evolve...I hope...
