0Flying Roofs

Summer is finally here (Spring was skipped in most states)! Time to take the Vette out of storage, dust her off and hit the road. There are many new Corvette owners over the winter who joined the team, and current Corvette owners are just now getting back into the groove. There is a new product on the market which will save you embarrassment and money, and maybe someones life someday.

The market has been empty for years and GM still has not figured out a way to notify you if your removable roof panel isn't latched down. Welcome to Flying Roofs!

Flying Roofs is a manual notification system to let you know if you forgot to latch down your roof. Many ask how this happens... Those that are part of the "flying roof club" know the answer. There are many people who swear to NEVER forget to latch down their roof. If that were the case, there would be no "flying roof club". It happens, and now there is a solution!

Most folks were distracted. Distractions come in many forms.... your cell phone rings, the neighbor says "hi", there's food in the oven and your timer went off, kids are fighting, the baby is crying... either way, it happens; and it happens to thousands of people who care deeply about their car. No matter how careful people are, they forget, we ALL forget things. The worst time to be reminded that your "Forgot" to latch down your roof, is when it lifts off your car and tumbles to the ground... or hits a vehicle behind you. Can you imagine if your flying roof panel hit the vehicle behind you? Nobody wants to think of the worst, nobody thinks it will happen to them... but it does! Read the countless stories posted in forums all over the internet. There are hundreds right here on Corvette Forum. Protect yourself and your investment.

Flying Roofs is a manual warning system for your removable roof panel. When your roof is on and latched, Flying Roofs is out of site. When your roof panel is removed, Flying Roofs stays with the roof attached to the release handle. And when your roof is finally placed back on the vehicle, the Flying Roofs Notifier will be hanging there to remind you of your unlatched roof panel before you leave. Don't rely on your memory. All of us "Forget" things from time-to-time. We forget where we put our keys, wallets and cell phones, but don't forget to secure your roof. There are MANY of you saying to yourself, "This will NEVER happen to me. I am extremely careful and meticulous about my Corvette." EVERYONE says that, until it happens to them. Then three things happen: 1. You look for a new roof. 2. You blame GM for not having a warning system. 3. You ask yourself how to not let this happened again. Flying Roofs is the answer! Tested and Trusted, it's the perfect product for you!

For a small price up front, your wallet won't be empty when you need it most!

Can't happen to me as I never remove my roof.

Get a vert. Problem solved.

Whenever I put my roof back on, before I get out of the car I give it a push to make sure it’s locked down. It’s the fourth thing on my mental list after locking the three latches.

Only about 3 months out of the year I would consider removing the roof. Too hot and humid, give me the roof with some A/C blowing up my short!!

I have 2 roof(s?...reef?...): transparent and body color. Every other month or so, I get a hair up my... and change out the roof. I have forgot 1 time, but it took me about 50 feet before I realized the front latch on drivers side was nearly poking me in the head (and I was actually moving my head to avoid it). Duh.
I just might get this.

Mine will come off for the ride home in about 15 minutes. Sundown and 81 degrees here...

Had my 14 coupe for 3 years and never forgot to latch it down. Moved to Florida and bought an 18 Vert. No flying roofs for me.

I bought a pair of these last year and the velcro wasn't "Sticky" enough and they kept falling off. Is this the same now or has it changed? I liked the idea I just had too much trouble with them.
