Of course, the carrier’s a far cry from a convertible, but hang in there a moment.
When your vehicle is going to
be stuck in the motor pool for a
long period of time, you usually
remove and store the antennas.
The problem comes when the
holes left on top of the carrier
aren’t covered up. The next time it
rains, in come the flood waters!
There are two easy ways to
prevent this. First, you can cover
the carrier with a tarp. That
keeps out rainwater, but you
still have to worry about leaks or
condensation.
Second, you can seal the holes
with the access covers designed to
do the job. The covers come with
gaskets that seal out water and
keep your carrier nice and dry.
