    Fitting a bikini top

    For my 21st my girlfriend bought me a bikini top and tonneau cover for my 109 I am wondering if anyone else has fitted one, and if so any tips and pics. It was from allwheeltrim.co.uk.
    Cheers

    Due to a severe shoulder injury 20 odd years ago, i can't reach around to tie the top straps of the bikini top. I would have trouble at the beach I reckon.

    Here in Aus we call the tornneau that goes with a bikini top budgie smugglers, or banana hammocks.

    Bugger the rules, It will be fine if you don't post the pics.








    On a serious note, loop the front over the rope rail, drag over the top and tether the rear straps. Pull the front loos tight, then the rear. Job done.

    here are some pics. i knew about the hooking the front over, but it was a bit more complex than that, i had to put a whole heap more fittings on, but have them on now. winged it.
    just not sure how to properly attach the flap behind the doors to tighten it.

    Any idea if you can get just the tonneau cover by itself? I've got a trailer made from the tub of a series 3.

    What was the price of the bikini top and tonneau? Do you know?
