MG MGF Technical - Roll Hoops

Has anyone with the X power hoops modified their Toneau cover to fit over the hoops? I.E cut holes/a hole in it?

I know MGR sell them with holes but they are charging more than I paid for the hoops!!!

No idea., but as we are all hairdressers on here, somebody must be able to borrow you some scissors!.

The windstop/tonneau is on special at the moment from Xpower online shop, maybe that will solve your problem.

I just checked the price for Xpower accessories via the MGR web site and the Tonaeu with holes is £168.27

Have you seen it cheaper on another site? The hoops were less than £150 on ebay.

Yes, Jennie Stothert has. I've seen her handiwork and very good it is too! I think Neil and Jennie may be away on hols at the moment, otherwise Neil might have answered himself.
