Yeah, but it depends on seats, console, a frame etc. Better to take it to them & let them make templates for a proper fit, did I mention I like to do a proper job😄

made lots of covers for me over the years.

they are not easy to get a hold of though as mega mega busy so if you don't like chasing then i wouldn't bother. it isn't great in this day and age but good canopy makers are hard to find so worth the effort.

http://www.covercraftindustrial.com/

they are not in kip marina anymore so don't try there.
