That’s what the last set went for, and yes they definitely sold.

However going in at that price I think they’ll be around a while.

:roll: But I guess if some daft bugger will pay it, then that is what they are worth. A bit like truffles. :cry:

Each to their own and all that, but I've never really understood the craze for these. Yes they do finish off the car with the roof down and would make sense in places like California where you can potentially leave the roof down all summer . But in the UK where the difference between summer and winter is the rain is warmer in the summer, I cant really see the point as you need to be able to get the roof up and down as easily as possible. Even for those with a garage queen UK car, you dont want to be leaving the roof down in a cold damp garage, even in summer.

Worse than pointless in the UK. More of an annoyance when you need to get the roof back up sharpish when the rain (inevitably) arrives. I wouldn't pay £10 for them, let alone £340.

When the roof is down they really tidy the back up and look great. :)

I keep mine on under the hard top, it saves 4 months of crud gathering on the roof hinges.

Would love some but wouldn't pay above 50 quid so looks like I'll never own any, I'll get over it!

If I had a set I’d want to put them on near enough every time the roof went down, trouble is then it defeats the point of having an electric folding roof :?
