W2TKY Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Does Caterham make a Boot Cover for S3's with a X Bar minus the Hood Sticks ? Cheers Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Looking at the Caterham parts website they make several for cages & R500s without hood sticks. Perhaps call them to identify the appropriate oneAlso SBFS make them in mohair which are rather nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team SLR No.77 Posted August 7, 2020 Leadership Team Share Posted August 7, 2020 Both Thundersports (Oxted) and Soft Bits 4 Sevens make shallow boot covers for use without hoodsticks.Stu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazio Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Forget CC, just go straight to Oxted, they'll make what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W2TKY Posted August 8, 2020 Author Share Posted August 8, 2020 I've contacted Oxted and she asked for a Caterham Part number for what I want. Not used the full roof in five years, and I'm sick of the rattles from the hood sticks, they need to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team SLR No.77 Posted August 8, 2020 Leadership Team Share Posted August 8, 2020 Mark, I spoke with Jemma at Oxted about this a couple of years ago, they make 47 different boot covers some with sticks some without. I'm pretty sure the one you need is Caterham part no. 73460 "boot cover SLR500 to fit with no hood sticks". My understanding though is that this fits with the twin diagonal FIA bar but not with the single diagonal which I have, I couldn't progress any further because of this. Just so you're aware, the reduced height cover doesn't extend to cover the small brackets that attach the hood sticks.Stu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianroden Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I think I might have one. It came off my car when it had a full cage (i.e. X in the roll over hoop) it's definitely a low profile one designed to fit the boot edge without hood sticks. Let me know if you're interested and I will get some pictures for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
