The half tonneau cover was at a time when I went out on winter Saturday mornings, when MrsW was at work. The one I made, blended into the hood cover at the rear, and I use a fibreglass tent pole which secures on the dash at the front, and under the head restraint at the rear. I prefer the symmetry of both head restraints, even with the half tonneau cover in place.
I used mohair and lined it with neoprene for strength because it billows quite a lot, and I was intending to devise something to stop that but never did. Without a hood and frame you would need a rear section, and the luggage cover I use on trips, connects to the rear ash frame using 4 lift-the-dots, and four attachments to the perspex wind break.
