Remember these? They used to be fitted to all kinds of cars, little clear bubbles covering half the driver's window do you could get some air without too much rain getting in. Then suddenly in the mid-80s they all but died out, only to be resurrected in more modern times as people realised they still get rained on now that cars no longer have gutters…

I really want some for Rolf, but the modern companies don't seem to go back far enough unless a car had a very long production run - like the Metro, although I'm not sure they'd fit our doors.

Does anyone have anything similar to what I'm describing?

I remember them well: my series 2 1750HL had one when I first got it, but I am not sure what became of it after I changed the driver's door over 10 years ago Embarassed
