Car Forum / Mazda / Mazda Miata / November 2007black tonneau
I'm needing a black tonneau cover for an M1...the OEM one that covers the entire cockpit and doesn't have the headrest pockets. Anyone have one in good shape laying around gathering dust they could part with? I don't need any of the hardware. Don't ask what happened to the one I had..............Thanks. > I'm needing a black tonneau cover for an M1...the OEM one that > covers the entire cockpit and doesn't have the headrest pockets. > Anyone have one in good shape laying around gathering dust they > could part with?

Oh, go on, tell us what happened to the one you had! <G> I have a black tonneau cover WITH the headrest pockets that I use but I'm wondering if maybe a cockpit cover would have been a better choice, have you investigated them? There's a couple I've thought about: http://www.crazyred.com/cri/pages/covers.html or similar types and: http://www.capoptop.com/ Just a thought....

I've had it about 8 years or so and except for having to replace some of the elastic, it's been maintenance-free. And it fit both my '90 and the '04 with rollbars.

Did you disconnect the broadcast module? The one that broadcasts all day and all night, "ATTENTION PIDGEONS, FREE TOILET HERE!" They come with every Miata and I can't find out how to disable mine.

It's like the old song says, Fish gotta swim, Birds gotta fly, Pidgeons gotta poop On my car, I wish they'd DIE!

I thought about the cockpit cover, but I show the car and it shows nicely with the tonneau on. I may have to go with the one with the pockets, but it's not my first choice. >>Did you disconnect the broadcast module?

Bird poop is MUCH more interesting than tonneau covers. > I thought about the cockpit cover, but I show the car and it shows > nicely with the tonneau on.

It should only cost a few bucks to have an upholstery shop cut and stitch to get rid of the pockets for you. -- Larry >>Did you disconnect the broadcast module?

The pigeons, of course, go with the color of the *interior*. Can't say I ever had any trouble with Bozo's black interior. And Bozo has been standing top-down below birds as long as any Miata. :) Leon > That's why the white color never fades... > > -- Larry SignatureLeon :) Bess :) Bozo .) >>>Did you disconnect the broadcast module?

I have a black interior but I never leave the car open, the tonneau is on or the top is up. Both the black tonneau cover and the black top have pidgeon poop on them but they do hit the white paint more than they do the black material.

Picture the white car from aloft as a target; the black part is the bullseye. Pigeons, not being all that skilled at anything except reproduction, are naturally going to score more 4s than 10s. > Picture the white car from aloft as a target; the black part is the > bullseye.

I was camping on the Superior north shore and there was a gull standing on the path about 100 yds away from my camp. I shooed him away as I walked up, and he flew directly to my camp and nailed my 2-man tent from about 30 feet. miker All those birds are pikers compared to the volume and odor from a loon. One bird's expulsion was enough to cover the boat from stem to stern. > > Picture the white car from aloft as a target; the black part is the > > bullseye.

The old expression "When pigs fly.." strikes terror into the hearts of all convertible owners... ;-) SignatureXS11E, Killing all posts from Google Groups The Usenet Improvement Project: http://improve-usenet.org >Serious poopers are the Pelicans. I've seen a Mexican fishing boat get >white washed with one flip of a tail..... There's strength in numbers. A couple of years ago, we were playing tennis on a clay court when it was carpet-bombed by a large flock of Canadian geese headed south for the winter. And elsewhere in the world of poop, explosive equine diarrhea can be a great source of merriment. Never park your Miata in the impact zone. -- Larry |
