Hi guys do you know that the copen comes with an opening cover? But when I bought my copen it did not come with it. I was wondering where to can I buy the opening cover. Opening cover is fitted to cover the expose area (just behind the seat) when the top is down. It even have a compartment in the boot for it. Check out the menu that is downloadable from this website.
It's called a "tonneau cover", and it was an optional extra with standard Copens. I bought one from a Daihatsu dealer in the UK about 2 years ago, but it was very expensive (somewhere around £300). I rarely use mine now, as they're quite fiddly to put on and take off. If you type "tonneau cover" in the copenworld search box on the front page, you'll find a few discussions about them.
Keep an eye on UK ebay. They appear for sale everynow & then. In fact there is one for sale in Australia. https://www.copenworld.com/vb3/showthread.php?t=948
Mark, ive never even opened mine up in 9 years. It isnt necessary to use, im sure its more to do with aesthetics. But if it was to rain while i was driving, i would imagine getting out of the car to put it back in the boot, would be a hassle, rather than just stop and put the roof back on without getting out of the car.
Hi Mark, as the tonneau cover is a factory-fitted option, pleae carefully read through this thread if you would like to retrofit. Andreas
Hi Scooty and dwayner, thanks for the advice... looks like tonneau cover will be last on my wish list. Hi Adam, thanks for the picture... now i know how it looks like... I will look out in ebay for the best bargain.
