Many people with the excellent Fiamma cycle racks for the type 2 have problems with leaks. This is due to the hanging brackets which clip over the rear door compressing the seals which then lets in water during heavy down pours.

I've managed to make myself a neat solution using magnetic vinyl and happy to make a few more up if anyone is interested.

Cost is £7.50 plus p&p which I estimate to be about £2.50 (I'll be getting a firm price once I've worked out the best way to package them). I understand from talking to others that a typical sign manufacturer would generally ask for anything upto £10 for an off cut so I think this is a reasonable price to pay for a bespoke product.
If you are interested please PM me. These are only available in white unfortunately
