The shower-cap cockpit cover for the Lotus Elise S2 designed and sold by

S2 Fitting Instructions (long roof)

1. Mirror fixings pass around the mirror supports

2. Lift windscreen wiper over cover. Pull cover forward from centre.

3. The two rear corner bungee bands fit in the keyhole slot in the body buttress and over the tension bar. The tension lever should be adjusted to expose the bar to its maximum. The aerial loop may be used at this point for extra security.

4. The shower-cap can be fitted over the hood to prevent strong sunlight passing through the windscreen, ice forming on the windscreen in winter, or soiling to the hood if the car has to be parked under trees. Some owners have found that using the shower-cap this way stops damage to the interior through water leaking at the junction of the window and windscreen. Fit the shower-cap over the hood as described above in 1 & 2. To fix the rear of the cover over the hood, two bands are provided as extensions to the bungee elastic. The extension bands can be pulled over the end of the hood lip on each side.

The shower-cap can be handwashed and should not be placed in a tumbledryer.
Do not leave the shower-cap in the storage bag when damp for prolonged periods.

The elemental showercap is designed only as a temporary provision.

When the car is to be left exposed to variable weather conditions for any length of time, then the hood should always be fitted. However, to provide additional security, the two support stays which form part of the existing hood structure can be fixed before fitting the shower-cap. This will help prevent water forming over the cockpit.
