Hi just acquired a lovely 2013 4/4 the hood cover is different than on my previous Morgans it has a large flap with two velcro straps I can't figure it out any ideas Have photo but even making it very small will not allow me to attach

Is it an easy up hood ? my 2013 has one which raps around the folded hood and has press stud fastness to hold it round.

Ditto and it also has a full width pocket to hook over rear rail with two holes to accomodate securing plungers.

Hi thanks for replies but nothing like my previous 2 easy up hood covers No press studs to hold flap and no pocket that the hood fits into it has the 2 holes and that's about the only similarity

Would you mind sharing where you purchased your hood cover please. I have been looking for one here in the US to no avail, but I will be in the UK later this year and would love to source one there.

Kind Regards

My Roadster hood cover was a factory option. I admire the skill with which they goy it to fit really snugly; but I dread every time I try to put it on, as it is such a tight fit and not a 2-minute job !

The beauty of the Allon White ones are that you can have something a bit bespoke, Mrs Cooperlady asked for a sort of attached long flap that goes over any luggage on the parcel shelf and tucks behind the seat, great if you leave the hood down when parked up somewhere public

I had one made that has such a flap. It also has a transverse zip and another flap big enough to cover the cockpit. Keeps the sun off the seats and the luggage out of site when touring.
