Necessary accessories for the Cabrio? Hi all,
Since I'll be picking up my Cool Blue cabrio soon, I would like to get some tips and advice on how to take care of the car and prolong the life of things like the soft-top cover etc, as well as how to make driving it more fun and practical. So here goes: - Rear-view: I read a lot about rear-view problems caused by the soft-top or the roll-bars, and I read in one thread about using a reverese backup camera to help in that regard. Where can I order one and how easily can it be installed? And how effective is it?
- How would I go about protecting the soft-top from the scorching sun and heat that can get to 55 degrees Celsius in the summer and would most likely damage it? Is there something like a sun-block solution for cars (
) ? - How about cleaning the soft-top? What do you guys and gals use?
- I think I've seen pictures of people covering their cars completely when unattended; is that common or was I just imagining things?
I think this will be good for now, but I'll definitely add more questions once I remember them or think of them .
Thanks in advance! |
