The BMW blanket is on EBAY USA, alternatively buy a cat blanket for about £2

I'm lucky that my mother is a seamstress....
I purchased a couple of circular rare earth magnets, then roughly traced the outline of the rear window, expanding the tracing lines by a few inch extra for complete cover...
my mother had some felt type material and she sewed each magnet into both top corners.
The magnets are strong enough to hold on to the roof frame from the outside.

Very cheap and it works a treat.
Only modification I'm thinking of doing is obtain some 1/4 (or less) flexible foam sheeting and asking her to sew it in for some extra thickness.


Am I seeing a market here? :bounce:
Designed or not designed, that is the question.
