If I were to purchase a tonneau cover would it fit on my non-speedster saleen?

I would assume so as all the tonneau cover has to latch on is the seat belt buckles and under the back of the trunk. You see a lot of non speedsters cars with tonneau covers. It should fit. Does anybody know any different.

You are correct, Saleen did nothing special to the cars for the tonneau, I would look for a Saleen cover not a knock off.

True, isn't someone on here selling a black one for $400 bucks.

I tell everyone that wants a cover to find a two piece cover. The one piece is a pain if you want to leave the car in the parking lot or if there is a sudden down pour.
Just my 2 cents.

California mustang offer a cover just for that, it cover the front window, hooks on the wipper arms, the rear get tucked into the trunk, I have used it frequently when I am out with the tonneau on.

While we're on the subject of the Tonneau cover, does anyone know where I can get a replacement for the "Speedster" logo that goes on the side of the tonneau? My original looks like it was actually painted on but the paint came off.I bought a decal off of EBAY over a year ago but it wasn't very good and it just peeled off. I know of a place that can make me a stencil if I can get a decal.
Thanks

Check with Saleen Parts/Speedlab. It's a decal.

I have a Cervini 2pc Speedster cover ( and light bar and wind screen ) on my 2002 SC rag. it comes with bags, fits in the trunk and a duplicate of the 1 pc.
I drove a 1996 Saleen from Canada to Los Angeles with a 1pc cover on.. 28 hours... in the fall ( teeth chattering at 3am ). A 1pc cover is not practical, maybe local driving around but not on road trips.

Do you have any pictures of it? Curious to see what the 2 piece covers look like and how big of a seam there is.

It is a nice set up and if it starts to rain you are not stuck.
