Default Homecoming parade

My son volunteered my Roadster for the high school homecoming parade this Friday. Has anyone figured out a good way to put a pillow or something behind the wind deflector so the girl doesn't end up sitting on the deflector? Is there any easy way to remove the deflector?

Thanks.

Nope...it's in there pretty good.

I wouldn't have her sit on the rear cover. Imagine having to replace that.

I would have her sit with her rear end sitting on the rear headrest.

Eeeeekkk scratches on the paint!!!!

is she going to be sitting inside the car or on the trunk area? I hope she's skinny. I would take the head rest off and have her sit therewith a pillow cushion.

Leave the girl off. No one will notice her anyway.

Funny that you mention that, wahoo. I have a friend that asked me the exact same thing!! Something about the Z Roadster, I guess. It just looks Sec-Z!!! I like MAdooid's suggestion though. I might just do that!! She'll have to walk next to my car. ___________________________________________________

Make her take off her shoes, and stand in the seat. You're not going to be going that fast, she can hold on to the windshield support.

No way I'd have some kid sitting on the cover of the top stowage space. The owner's manual talks about damage to the mechanism if you try to force the lid down - imagine putting a 100 pound girl on it.

Let her sit in the trunk. Preferably with the lid shut. I've always wondered if you could fit a homecoming queen in there...
