Exterior car cover

Any suggestions for a reasonably priced fitting cover with mirror pockets and pocket for stock antennae? 05 R52. Southwest climate.
thank-you,
Corey

just take the ant' off when you use the cover ... you'll find a 'plain' cover for a hardtop will work

or get a stubby ant'

from my experience with covers, a pocket for a regular ant' will probably result in a broken ant' b4 long

Thanks for your suggestion. I have been using a cover that had the stock antenna pocket. Any other covers bent the existing antenna. And although the antenna didn’t break, the seams around the antenna base eventually split. Your suggestion may be the only way to go.
