Is there a favorite place to go shopping for a cover for a roadster?

Thanks

Mazda cover from AutoZone is all you need, no more than you will use it.

Mazda Miata cover from AutoZone is all you need, no more than you will use it.

Edit: Left out Miata originally.

Unless you rarely drive your car, use the auto zone cover. I bought the one from car cover world and used it once to see if it fits.

I find I use my snap-less tonneau cover much more than my full car cover. Easier to store in the car, much less room required after cutting the spars in half and using brass joiners.

What year model?

Don’t remember which one I purchased. Got the one that is heavy duty and seems to be water proof. Have used it for several years on the nights at the London Cobra Show.

Slightly too large, but use bungee cords to hold it down to keep the wind from blowing the cover off during the night.

Another option is to get the disposable Car Condoms off of Amazon. They run about $10 to $15 and will hold up for a couple months, if not more. I've used them during the build process and while parking the finished car in the garage to keep the dust off.

Thanks for the recommendations!

Just looking for something that if I get somewhere and the weatherman gets it wrong, I can at least try and keep things dry
And/or there's usually something messy going on in my garage...

So if one decides to go with Miata’s cover, which Miata gen specifically? Or are they all the same size?

Does the double roll bar version have 2 "bumps" for the roll bars? Or would it work on a challenge car?

Here's what two roll bars look like.

What about the Miata short convertible top cover? I understand they fit over the windshield and roll bars. Not a perfect fit but good for overnight rain or a little bit of security.

I will ask again, does anyone know what year Miata works best?

Thanks, George

I ask again,

What year or generation Miata short cover works?

Thanks, George

My 2020 ND RF is similar wheel base to the MK4 and has roof height that would cover the bars due to similar height. That is my estimate and what I try, and I got a close up today of Gale's but did not get the tape measure out.
