Be interested to see the outcome of this as would love to be able to put the roof up when driving for those days caught in the rain!

I think the most important feature is the ability to close the roof from the fob - this prevents the necessity of looking like a pillock running out to the car in a tee shirt when it starts chucking it down!

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:

I'm located between Bury and Cambridge and was wondering if there is anyone who does this coding locally. I'm not sure if I want to spend £44 for the pro app and £49 for the plug-in "for a play". But if it really is good to have, I may be inclined to make a small purchase! :D

P.S I'm sure there maybe cheaper prices out there but I just took them off the app.

Cheers.

TBH, the genuine adaptors tend to be around the same price everywhere, however I'd definitely go for a genuine one, as it's guaranteed to work with the app, and comes with a lifetime guarantee.

Cheers Mike. I assume they're good to have so I think I'll make a small purchase. :D
