Need to find a source to replace current hood cover, snaps are in correct position but clips can't be attached possibly because of shrinkage of material prior to my buying car.

Anyone know where replacement can be bought?

Thanks in advance!

 

I took an unused and uncared for (for some time) cabriolet roof cover and washed it with some sunlight and a soft brush. Washed a couple of times rinsing really well. Hung it up to drain off a bit and was able to stretch the material over the roof and snap the cover into place. I am leaving it to dry in place for a few days and believe it will be O.K. If not, next time I guess I will try the wet stretch again. Don't know a source for new ones if this is the cover your talking about. Upholsterers?

 

In the UK, there's always a few new ones lying around on ebay. If it's really important, a good upholsterer will be able to make one up in whatever fabric you desire.

I'm assuming that as it's a 92, you mean a Convertible not a Cabriolet? New or used Cabriolet covers are much more difficult to find over here, whereas Convertible ones are ok to find.

Remember that there's a difference between 2 seater and 2+2 seater hood covers. Make sure you get the right one!

Good luck

I got mine at Paul's Jaguar. I believe it's factory. Very happy with it!
