Ok - scrap the Gaffer tape - came off today when I lowered the hood - went for a short spin at lunchtime to get some rays - anyways on lowering the hood, the tape cam off - on lifting the hood back up - my small hole had developed into a much larger tear about 4 inches long - quick trip to Woodies on way home and patched up with waterproof "repair tape" clear colour = new hood required much sooner then finances planned.
Anyhows, quick look on the internet for a new mohair hood for mkII turned up the following:-
mx5parts.co.uk = €775.00 delivered - genuine mazda hood
www.webcars.net = €1295.00 fitted
www.mazda-mx5-shop.com = €520.00 delivered
Has anyone any other options that they know of. I would'nt mind attempting to fit it myself - although I believe a Pop Rivet Gun would be required and 5 plus hours. I recall someone somewhere quoting €200 !! for a hood - any ideas ??
Any assistance on the best option would be appreciated.
Thanks
Robin
