Dear Listers,
I'm in the market for a top-notch canopy cover for the RV-8. I'm wanting the highest quality materials and workmanship on the product. I want it for overnight trips where it might rain so it needs to completely cover the front baggage door. When folded up, I don't want it to completely fill the limited rear baggage area in the RV-8, either.
I Google RV-8 Canopy Cover as well as looked at Van's Online catalog, and there seems to be plenty of "options", but I'm looking for some empirical data on quality, fit, and stowage.
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

I'm pleased with the one I purchased from Cleaveland Tools. I use it only
for travel when I have to park on the ramp. It's eight years old and still
looks like new. It rides on the rear baggage shelf behind the tool kit (in
other words it takes up very little space).

I have a Bruce's Custom covers.... I've had it for 8 years and it still looks new. Sunbrella material, lots of colors.... I liked it so much I already bought one for my -10, even though it is not flying yet....
