Can you just leave off the frontmost attachment and tuck the excess behind the seats? My cover is for the whole cockpit so usually there is about 3/4 of it stuffed behind the seats. Handy when leaving the car unattended though.

Handy when leaving the car unattended though. I'll have a try at that and thank you. Another member has contacted me who had similar issues with the ultra tight squeeze this causes. He had his tonneau beautifully altered to give a bit more seat movement. Something I would also seriously consider. Cheers

How about a removable steering wheel? I have one but so far not needed to remove it. It does make things much easier, I have taken it off to do jobs and getting in/out is easier. The toughest car I have had to deal with was an Exige. The sill is so wide.... Got in ok and it felt awesome. Getting out......bit the bullet, crawled out. It was a trackday at Silverstone and caused some smiles from onlookers!

Have you fitted the stainless door stays . Keeps the door at right angles when getting in and out

I always tell people you don't get in and out of a Morgan ..... you put 'em on and take 'em off.

Thanks Hugo. I am talking about the little rear tonneau that just covers the storage area though. Cheers

I'm confused....what sort of cover is that? On mine the folded hood cover is far too small to hinder the seat and the big cover folds behind seats as required. What have you got then? Nick
