93 is right- its a full cover- did not read tonneau so jumped to a conclusion . Silvia seems to be talking about a full tonneau ie like an MGB Healey etc. You can do the same for an NB if you want to start putting in studs in the body which I would not consider. The half tonneau does clean up the back and give some protection for the underside of the soft top.

Good pic of the actual cover in 93's comment above......and no studs!
He's confirmed he can still do them at the price...

Many tks - useful to know as I haven't seen him selling the cover on ebay for a while.

What Silvia was enquiring about isn't a full tonneau as we know them. It's only for when parked & then only as a temporary cockpit cover, which doesn't require any vehicle mods.

Ref MX5 full tonneau - I have leather one for my NA & it doesn't require any mods to the vehicle. My understanding is the full tonneau for the NB has been designed the same way.

Cab cover arrived today...it's a strong nylon fabric ,mine's Silver, and looks very good and packs away into a small light bag needing little boot space. Probably good to keep it there as there's a tag that goes into the bootlid join for security.
Good job, took about 3 weeks from NZ, good value too@$70 delivered....
