Hey All,

What car cover do people recommend to keep out the dust while stored in garage?

I see there are many around but are looking for a fitted cover to use while the car is stored in a garage.

If this has been discussed elsewhere, please just add the link to the topic/thread.

Cheers.
Cheers,
Ue.

I have a thicker one from California Car Cover, it came with the car and it has a very professional feeling!  8)

I have one very similar to Hakans . I am not sure of the manufacturer but it is very nice fit, with pocket provisions for mirrors (even though I only have one).
I have it in a large building and the car looks good every time I have checked on it.

Do you have to remove the antennae to put the cover on?

Yes, i have to in mine! Not a big problem but I guess if you special order one you get it with antenna cut out!?

Some covers come with a kit to allow for the antenna. The two important issues for a cover used for inside storage are fit and a lining that won't harm the paint finish.

No I cut a hole and installed the supplied grommet for the antenna
