Default Tonneau cover

I've given up on waiting for some one to make a good MG roadster again. So in December of 2007 I was extremely fortunate to find a 2001 s2000 with 5,200 miles!! It came with a hard top, extra set of wheels and snow tires (???) rack for hard top, dust covers etc etc etc.
Being a purist on roadsters, the hard top is going to disappear and I would like to purchase a full cockpit tonneau cover. Honda only sells what they call a tonneu cover, a piece that just fits over the lowered rag top.
Anybody have a source for a full tonneau cover??
BTW, this is the nicest vehicle I have driven in a long time !!

5k in 7-8 years? WTF? Was the old soft top removed or are you planning on removing it? Just wondering why you want a tonneu.

T'was a vehicle owned by a local doctor, pretty much only driven in good weather. All the service was performed by the local Honda dealer, so I have access to all the maintenance records.

I will leave the soft top on, but want to cover the passenger side while driving with the top down, similar to the old MG type tonneaus.

The 70's called and they want their weird tonneau cover back!

But really, I've never seen one and don't think it exists for the s2k.

They are available for Miatas. Maybe one of the suppliers for the Mazda could make one up for your S.

I had one on my old Miata. It was really nice being "warm" in the cooler temps with the top down.

I'd buy one if they were available.
