With a very minor tear in the vinyl roof we decided to replace the entire hood for new but this time we upgraded the material to Mohair.

As this is a rarer option on the MG Midget we arranged for hood specialists Don Trimming to manufacture the hood.

Here we are mid way through the refit.

Having now completed the re-fit of our soft top roof we have left her inside under the heat to settle the hood and ensure no creases develop.

Founded in 1958 Don Trimming are the UK’s most experienced manufacturer of replacement car hoods.

As the leading manufacturer of traditional car hoods for both pre and post war vehicles, Don Trimming use original manufacturing methods to replicate to the original specification.
