Craig, Jaegar is looking to buy a tonneau cover over on the FS&W board - you might be able to recoup a few pennies to help defray the cost of converting the Grey Growler into the Paper Lawyer Mobile Disco..........

I use the Tonneau cover too, I find it very easy to install, usually its done in 1 minute once you get used to it.

I used mine to goto work as my car is parked undercover in a secure car park I thought it would be ok, but as its in the city centre the dash got full of dust

Now I just use it on long top down journeys and weekends

I park undercover at work too - it's not dusty but there are a lot of pigeons about But, there are so many people milling about that the pigeons seem to go outside of the car park during the day to give a couple of local sparrow hawks some sport No pigeon damage so far with probably 150 top down hours there....

Noise reduction you say? Does it muffle the HKS at 8000rpm?

Tonneau covers are great

I have one. I use it most times too - didnt have it at the NE meet though - not enough boot space, that is the only bugger about it

Does it not fit on the parcel shelf when the roof is up?

I doubt it - never tried! Thinking of rigging some sort of holder for underside of boot lid!

Now there's an idea Mikey. Storing the cover when the hood is up has been bugging me too. As for the parcel shelf - you can rule this out if you have a wind stop in place
