Has anyone seen a cockpit cover for a 2001 BMW M3 Convertible? Not a full car cover. Just one of those that go over the roof and windows. Something like this one...

I want something I can use to protect the soft top and interior from UV and the elements, but don't feel like going through the effort of using a full car cover every day when I park at work.

Seems like it would be easier to use raggtop and something with UV protection on the dash/interior. Those things are a pita to put on sometimes.

Sorry that isn't very helpful I guess.

Sure that's helpful. I'd still like to find a well-fitting cover, but I don't mind hearing alternatives to help protect the top when it isn't covered. I'd never heard of ragtop.

Raggtop is GOOOOOD stuff. It's what I use on my c5 vert.

Here is a DP interior protector. I use Finish Kare stuff... but AG doesn't carry it.

you know you can get a hardtop for it? i like the way it looks. friend of mine has an alpine white e46 m3 vert with a black hardtop, unpainted carbon fiber GTR race hood, black pillars, black CSL's and a carbon lip....looks so incredible! i dont think its all that hard to remove either but im not 100% sure

Yeah, I definitely want to pick up a hardtop for it. They're pretty pricey, but worth it. I wish an aftermarket company would make them!
