Have been quoted around 250 for a tonneau cover fully fitted by car trimmers in Hinckley. Does that sound like a reasonable amount to you chaps?

Thanks

Sounds way too expensive to me !

Depends on what they are doing for the £250, is that fitted, central zip etc??

Soft bits for Sevens are going to do one for me and I am expecting that to be around £200ish

I payed £220 for a fully fitted tonneau, with zip and half doors, So it's not to far off.

what you do, send them a pattern??

hmm pity, I think I could use a local company that makes covers for trucks. I just need to get the material.

How much is the one from Tiger....?? I've got a full tonneau to fit, but not sure how much extra it was on the kit price. £125 rings bells tho...

Cheers

I left them the car for a week, you get in by hopping over the doors. the only thing i didn't tell them was that I wanted to be able to remove the half so they're still joined at the rear, just have to fold it onto the passenger seat.

that looks really good but the problem i had with my tiger one (non fitted before i got seats) was that in the winter it would shrink and was a real pain to get on!

From what i am told the mahair is not so bad for this

Just left mine stored on the car.
