I see you've got the dark and dismal weather too mate! You're right about how much can be seen in the cockpit - I've just had a look at my A5 conversion, which has a home-made moulded, very clear canopy, and the detail is mostly hidden. It should look fantastic though when the canopy is in place, giving a good impression of the interior. Great job Red Two!
Now get back to work on the garage conversion!!
