Hood on its way out

[Fruitcake]

The hood on my Mk.1 (1995) is on its way out. It's had a few splits for a while but now there's more.

I would really like a dark green cloth hood, with zip-out rear window, obviously. Is there anywhere anyone could recommend? Preferably in the north west?

Any ideas on price?

Cheers,

Dan

I got my last hood from here and fitted it myself. They advertise a green mohair one but they don't list a mail order price, only a fully fitted price (unfortunately they're based in the South East). Perhaps if you rang them up they might give you a mail order price.

Mine was a vinyl one but was decent enough quality.

I guess you could find someone in the north west to fit it for you if you didn't fancy doing it, although I don't know how much they'd charge.

PS: I managed to recoup two-thirds of the cost of the new hood by selling the zip-out rear window section from my old hood on eBay. Might be worth trying that if your old rear window isn't too badly damaged.

Good stuff, nice one!
