Default Cheap Hardtop Stand

Gave my car a good bit of TLC at the weekend, full wax, leather cleaner even took the stones out of the rear recess. I also removed the hardtop for the first time. It feels like the car handles better although im sure it doesn't.

Anway at the moment the hardtop is sitting in the spare room at the moment and I would rather store it vertically. Ive had a look on the search for the stands and there is a good few links, however I seem to remember someoone getting one from ebay(?) that folded and fits in the boot. Think it was mentioned as a weekend stand ie short term. I seem to recall it was cheaper than most options as well.

Can anyone help?

Thanks I seen this, but I would like the option to be able to move the stand without taking it apart.

I think this is what you are looking for;

You can buy the bag, which can be hung from ceiling hooks or used with the stand, or the collapsible stand alone.

The Honda stand has it so that the rear glass is uppermost. So I would surmise that that is the way it is supposed to be stored, as per the link

I got one of these and I can whole heartedly recommend them. I use mine with my stand but you can hang them up if you want to.
