Luggage Cover

I wanted to put a luggage cover on to help hide whatever is in the back. Having a cabrio makes me nervous especially since I work in a less than pristine neighborhood and my co-worker's Jeep top has been slit 4 times. I saw the one's on ebay from smart-mania and really liked the look, but when I e-mailed him he stated they were only for the 450. Being an optimist I ordered one anyway. I figured for $65.21 I'd give it a shot. As stated in his item description it took about 20 days for it to arrive. The poles didn't even come close to fitting but the embroidered leatherette looked nice. I went to the hardware store and bought 6 rubber plugs and 3 wood dowels. I drilled holes in the plugs to match the dowels, cut the dowels to length and painted the ends of the bottom one black as it sticks out from the leatherette. The end result worked out pretty well.

The armrest is from armrest king in Canada. There are many write ups on it here. Basically it was cheap and it is cheap and flimsy but gives a place to put your elbow.
