Question about size of enclosure to buy

Silverstreak · 10-21-2011, 11:17 AM

I'm wanting to get an enclosure I can drive in in bad weather (not to just cover it up). What I'm unsure about is, I have an extra seat in the back that converts to a shelf. The roof just covers the front seat. I've looked at 4-seater enclosures, but it looks like they usually have a longer roof to accommodate the longer roof that comes with 4 seaters.
I could probably buy one for a regular cart and not cover the back seat, since we don't use it that much......but I'm not sure how the fit would be. Plus, I don't really want the back seat exposed in bad weather.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Get the one for the 4 seated you will just have some extra slack in the back.

I agree with Colt.

Thanks.
I was thinking that that slack in the back would obstruct my view behind, since it will be roof material.
I wonder if I could just get a big piece of clear plastic and throw it over the roof and anchor it somehow? haha

Not sure if you plan on leaving it on but you could get the 4 seater cover and just run a couple of pvc pipe sticks strapped to the main roof to "extend" the current roof. May look a little goofy but those in back will be quiet if its raining :)

Use some pvc piping to construct a framework to keep the extra roof portion up in place.....

There is an echo in here...

Sorry Pete couldn't resist

My first enclosure was a pair of generic clear shower curtains. It worked until the Classic Accessories unit arrived. If you get the four seater cover and need some clear vinyl for windows, a five dollar shower curtain should do the trick.

Good ideas!
Would I just strap the PVC pipes across the roof with big bungees?
kab......how did you keep your shower curtains on?
lol.........I'm picturing how this might look when I'm done with it. hahaha
