my cover is on my car now which is in the garage.
mine doesn't have mirror pockets or antenna pockets.
I have to take my antenna off and it's such a hassle.
Plus, i have to be very gentle while putting it over my apr mirrors. I need to upgrade!

Idk if mine is waterproof, but I know that it is an indoor/outdoor car cover. I still haven't used it outside yet. I'm saving it for when college starts in a week

I have an OEM cover on an 08 CR. Any suggestions for a good cover cable lock system?

Thanks.

I also have a Noah car cover from Covercraft. Please note that no car cover should be "waterproof". I can repel water, but should not be a complete seal. If it were, any moisture under the cover would cause your vehicle to rot/rust, and that's not good...

I had a weather shield which is great because it's so light (protects very well from the elements), but felt it was to hard to handle with wind, and did not provide any ding protection like the Noah does.

I purchased a simple car cover cable lock on Amazon for like 11 or 12 dollars. My weather shield was stolen, so I learned my lesson (I park outside so my car is "exposed").

By the way, the OEM is an indoor dust cover (very soft and plush). I do not recommend it for the outdoors. If it rains, you have a very large sponge on your hands.

For those of you with CRs, Covercraft does have a CR specific model of the Noah and Weather shield (I looked it up recently, but it's hard to find on their site because it's so poorly designed).

I'll post some pics of my set up later.

I see in your sig you have an OEM AP2 Spoiler. Does the standard cover fit well with the wing, or is there any complications?

i also have noah car cover. 2nd one covered under really good warranty. it was the best combo of outdoor, element, ding protection... i could care less if it was a little bigger and heavier when rolled up.

the updated version is deep enough to cover ap2 oem front spoiler and rear deck spoiler. i also custom ordered mine with specific plastic hole slots (3 front, 4 rear, 2 sides) so i can run a string underneath my car to have my noah fitting and buckled down well (think of like a spider web of strings typing down the cover). so no wind or unwanted viewer can lift my cover up easily. i think the simple driver door to passanger door line security is not enough... especially if you live in weather conditions that are unpredictable and harsh at times.

I have the Covercraft Weathershield cockpit cover in light blue, looks good on my ABP CR. Very light, easy to install, folds to size of football and works great when I go without the Hardtop and need to cover the interior for a period of time. I highly recommend.
