Bought one for our 911, but they make a 914 version...
Good to protect the interior when the roof is not on, and parked. https://www.sonderwerks.com/shop Attached image(s)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) I use the umbrella for two reasons. 1. To keep the sun out of my car in the summer time. So cal gets very toasty!! 2. To keep the rain out of my car in the winter time. Even with the top on the umbrella cover keeps more water out of the car, but I mainly use it when i park the car to keep the sun off of the dash and seats. Nice to know there are other options out there. |
