However, these covers have many drawbacks, in particular the removal and installation (i) are difficult, long, boring and require the presence of two people.

The hood cover of a motor vehicle or the like according to the invention aims to remedy these drawbacks. It is fixed to the soft top and is arranged in such a way as to be able to completely cover the folded soft top, the position in which it is maintained. a beautiful person. When the convertible top is raised, the cover can be folded over, for example, over the convertible top, or underneath, so as to be invisible and not to harm. the appearance of the car. Moreover, being always extended, it keeps well and the risk of loss is eliminated, because the cover is fixed to the hood.
