Hot Weather and Spray Hood Windows
Who folding down the spray hood be careful if there are any items that could press against the collapsed window. I lowered my spray hood onto the power cable socket and it has left a permanent indentation on the window material and stretched the plastic. I assume because the hot weather has softened the plastic window.
What's that? Dunno! Should we be worried about that? Dunno! How? Ah dunno!

Gentle application of a hair-dryer when you have the opportunity will probably fix the problem. (Also works on dents in car plastic bumpers.)
