These came with the tonneau cover I bought, but I don't need them and could do with some money so they are up for sale.

They have no rips but are used and do have a couple of imperfections.




I have seen new ones advertised for £100 on the forum previously so I am looking for £40 for these, this includes postage, or I would consider part exchange for a set of mirrors or an indicator kit.

If we could have sight of a pair of side panels we could probably make you pair, colour to choice.

Hi I don't think the problem is with the material it's the plastic clips that hold them on to the C5 is the problem

Hi Chas,
I might be able to identify the plastic clips if I had sight of them.Or we might stock something else that will do the same job-I have some black plastic hooks similar to dogclips that would probablty grip the reverse edge flange of the bodyshell on the *pardon my French*pit sides

C5 ENTHUSIAST + RESTORER

Hi there I do have one of the clips .and a set of covers that have both clips I could let you borrow them as long as they don't get damaged ..And  I get a very large discount on a set .Bye Chas

Just made a prototype of the buckle for the side panels as you can see not there yet but it doe's fit ...Will have a go at the other one in the morning .....




Retro Andy

I have an old set of faded blue panels and the elastic has stretched, but I'm now thinking of getting the panels made up for me. Might choose a different colour other than the original three ?

We have suitable fabric in the following clours: blue green red yellow black cream purple maroon and ORANGE
Clips photographed by Chas I don't recognize hence we'd either have to re-use your old ones or perhaps Chas could make and sell new clips for us to incorporate into side panels.

Do you have a rough idea of how much you think the will be selling for ?

Hi there I have been  making another clip take a look .The top one was the first then the second one is the one I have just finished . And the third one is the original

I will have a go at the other two clips later and post the photo's ....Antony we may be able to work together on making some of the side panels
