It’s crazy how much these can end up going for. Glad I don’t have silly little unfinished gaps anymore

Better investment than money in the bank,will soon have to store them in a safe security.

Is someone not able to 3d print these then?

I’m sure it’s been suggested several times. They are pretty flimsy so not sure how strong a 3D print would be, plus would need covering etc. So nobody has actually attempted it yet

The trouble is finding someone willing to loan them to someone else to model them for an extended period of time. I've offered to give to a go before BUT due to work and other general stuff, I'd probs need them for a couple of weeks or more (purely due to getting time to sit down and do it, and then re-adjusting and taking more measurements etc etc etc)

If anyone has some not being used they're to lend me for a month or so then I'd happily try!

Could be a profitable venture for some one, sure there would be plenty of takers at a reasonable price.

I’ve got a set you’re welcome to use over the winter as I’ve got the hard top on.
Shame I didn’t know this morning as I’ve been to Cambridge today.

Ha, unreal!! What are the chances eh! If you're happy to part with them for a while so I can take measurements etc then that would be great. Will you be in or passing through Cambridge again any time soon?

Nothing planned at the moment but I’ll keep it in mind and message you if I do.

Can you not use them with the hard top on ?,this would tidy up the sides.
