I have an autohomes flap sided pop top - as you can in my avatar.
The main cushion sits fine in the rear of the pop top and all collapses and secures without issue. The 2 narrower cushions don't seem to have a home tho.
I usually end up slotting them behind the bench seat but they take up heaps of room. I can't think why they don't store in the roof but I've not found a way without causing stress when trying to securely lock the roof down.
Just wondered if I was missing something obvious?
Thanks
Sarah
Where do you store your roof cushions?

Re: Where do you store your roof cushions?
Hi Sarah,
We've got an Autohomes poptop too and have the same issue with the bed, when the roof is folded down and secured then we slide the narrower cushions between the side flaps, one each side.
This works well for us and doesn't stress anything too much, you can even push them sideways enough to clear the skylight and see the sky!
Not sure if yours are standard thickness but ours are and fit no bother.
Hope this helps, Mark.

Re: Where do you store your roof cushions?
Fantastic!!! Thanks so much, works a treat!
I do think I tried this once before but the roof was in a very poor state then and I don't think the gaps were large enough - since the re-con it's sitting properly instead of sunkenly now LOL.
Cheers!!

Re: Where do you store your roof cushions?
Same place as I store mine, think the roof actually sits down better when they are in there than if I leave them out.
I was talking to a company the other day about getting mine re-covered, they were trying to convince me that they were 2" deep foam but I'm sure they are 3", am I right? Because my tape measure sure thinks so.
