Hmm, I noticed a very slight nick in mine the other day when I was washing the car and I do use the caps occasionally - any more info on where the cuts are supposed to occur?
They’re supposed to keep debris out of the mechanism when the roof is down, however, they just destroy your fabric roof.
How and where do they damage the roof? I've had my fitted quite a few times and haven't noticed any damage?
Above the doors, when the roof is up, you’ll see some tear marks. Mine were on the drivers side. The revised parts seem to have come later on and are dealer request only, mine is a March 2017 car too. Check out the images attached.
Thanks for the info, just checked mine and can't see any damage luckily. Did use the caps a fair bit last summer.Above the doors, when the roof is up, you’ll see some tear marks.

And don’t use them again, no idea if the new ones actually fix the issue but the horror in getting it repaired isn’t worth the hassle.
The first roof was supplied with a hole in it and collapsed mechanism. The second roof they’ve not managed to align correctly since October, now they’ve finished aligning it it’s now turned out one of the parts is faulty and requires replacing. It’s been me, the customer, that has found the issues at every stage they’ve said it was ready. The Fordstore has now said they’re refusing to touch convertibles ever again (yes, it’s under warranty)
It would be worth speaking to Hendy performance if your local dealer isn’t them or rated. I’m wishing I’d taken mine across the country to get it sorted it’s been such a saga.
