Cab tambour closure for cali pop top

[SlidePods]

Do people suffer with the Cab closure tambour system on their cali roof opening whilst driving? I retro fitted my roof and it has always done it. Until today..... I came up with a really really neat system to stop it from happening and thought if others suffer with the same thing I would put a little kit together for around the £10/£12 mark (delivered) with fitting instructions to solve the problem for others.

A felt strip on each side seems to do the job.

Our method is much more factory in look and is absolutely bullit proof

Would be interested if it doesn't stick out when open? Are you given more details or keeping it a secret.

I'm keeping it a secret! drop me an email and I will put a kit together for you for £10 delivered and get it out to you and you can tell me what you think

I'd be interested if it's a non-destructive solution i.e. no cutting/drilling of existing plastics. I'm forever closing it as I'm driving along!

We used two bits of Velcro, now never moves.

Would be interested to know what it is before purchase. I love my gadgets but don't buy blind I'm afraid

We used little foam pad for chair feet on wooden floors cut to fit cost pence and lasted over 18 months so far.(as shown by WG)
Why would members pay £10 for something you dont know what you are bying. Sorry "Sidepods" but you could be supplying a 3 inch nail for all we know

Don't worry Slidepods, nobody wanted to buy my little table invention, but I am still pleased with it.

It is like going into Tesco and all they have on the shelves is white sealed boxes and you just have to take a chance. I am not sure this type of sales tecnique will catch on ?

That table was legendary and we saw exactly what it was

My dad used to be a discount supermarket manager when I was a kid.
On occasion he would bring home a box full of unlabelled tins. We had great fun opening them to see what was going to be for tea that night.
On a good day curry, stew and fruit.
On a bad day dog or cat food!

Did you get stoned as a result?

Nope, but did get a bit of gravel rash. Which is never nice, especially on an empty stomach !

I use two rolled up £5 notes - does the trick for me and of course handy if you get caught short

Hi WelshGas, how do you fit the strips of felt? Is there a photo or something elsewhere on the forum?

 

[ejmoore]

We have a neat solution using a silicone spoon. It looks a bit crude maybe but keeps the thing from sliding, and serves double duty for cooking too. And it's cheaper than £10-12!

Good morning guys from sunny Cirencester CC site. Same problem! I'm looking at it now. There are 2very thin foam strips fitted already. At the rear end of the slide way maybe replace these with thicker?
