    Has anyone bought the ebay car covers for mavs? Do they fit and are they waterproof? Thanks fellas. Almost sounds too cheap to be true.

    Well, I asked this same question a while back, and they are pretty much crap. They are too cheap to be true. Here's a link below where we talked about them. Towards the end is the truth about the covers as stated by gsjohnson. I am now using a California Car Covers brand cover that my dad got with his 97 Cobra. He doesn't use it, so I snagged it from him. It fits nicely on the Mav even though it was custom built for the Cobra. Hope this helps you.

    Yes, I was the one who bought one of the ebay car covers. They suck & are of low quality. Definitely not the quality that you expect from there advertisement. Very misleading & very slow shipping(took 2 months)& the guy didn't amswer my emails. Stay away!
