Forgot about them. They're near Chessington iirc? They fitted a bloke I knows z4 hood and he was over the moon.


thats them...i'm in Oxford and was tempted with the road trip and then saw the cost of them coming to me and thought it was worth the extra!

:lol: Tbh I didn't speak to them. My dad told me to go there after a bloke he knew got his roof fitted there.

Give Monsoon car hoods a call. They're a very small business and very friendly/knowledgeable.

They have your car listed on their website, so should manage it no problem.

Jack Smith's is the go to as Tom said, massive in the MR2 world, 280 for a roof made and fitted. Not much use to you.

There is a place in maldon/heybridge way near the small asda that do custom roof trims for older stuff, they might be worth a try as you already have one.

Jack Smith Trimmers are meant to be fantastic, and very competitively priced. I know they were held in very high regard by the S2000 lot, and I believe the MX5 guys speak highly of the work there too.

I think a brand new hood was less than £300 supplied and fitted for an S2000, so should be similar for a MX5.

Only downside for you is they're in Swansea, but very cheap!

Romford would be ideal Ben, know anybody that's been there, or heard anything decent? Brighton wouldn't end of the world, no idea how much I should be expecti to pay though

There's a place in Romford called allhoods :thumbs:

I used monsoon near Brighton for my Z4. Bit of a trek but great company.

Try yourself? You built a turbo corsa on your drive, should be capable

So after speaking to a few people about how easy it was, I bought a brand new Mohair roof for my mx5.
However what I wasn't told until after was, all those people bought them already on the frame. Now I've spoken to about 4/5 people/businesses and they all say it's too difficult and they wouldn't want to
Get involved.


Do any of you know somebody I could use? This has a tear in it, looks shit and leaks in heavy rain.
