Very elegant, although given their effectiveness when down I just removed mine completely.

Thats not a bad idea, saying that my drivers side is fine and just need to sort the passenger side.

My passenger side is also quite loose now. It stays in place if I fold it towards the windshield. Will try heat shrink tube over some electric tapes to tighten it up at the hinge.

Ekapol, the one on your driver's side is graciously from Costas to replace the droopy old one--maybe see if he has the passenger one to send you . . .

Thanks Costas so much, the driver side is very nice and firm.
Doug, I will try my tweaks on the passenger side before bugging him
Waxed Stripey last Monday, been under car cover everynight since then. Guess I will wax again tomorrow getting her ready for Palo Alto British Car Meet on Sunday

Ratman: I notice your A-pillar corner seals have a nice flow line from the leather trim part, look quite chunky comparing to mine. Are those S2 seals?

No problem at all "G". Thanks for letting me know. I should have looked around more
Yes, I'm interested in those S2 seals being offered by TrimTech currently. They don't have those seals we were mentioning in the kit. They are 5 pieces that go with the hood.
I was just curious what else that we need to make the whole S2 version seals work as the whole package. The seal-trims themselves should already help a lot. I better stop now..
Er.. nice job on the sunvisor

thanks!
I have to find a SE Elan in order to see the difference between it and my S2.
I quite happy to bought an S2, nevertheless it's not waterproof!
I don't want be offtopic but I think that I have to check and set the roof and mobile seals alignment.
