Ex Westy,
Couple of small questions re Westy/sunroof headliner.

If I go for OEM vinyl headliner, how many bows do I need, are there short ones around the sunroof hole.
If I go ply Westy style, can i get the J channel that holds the stuff up anywhere?

What else will I need to hold them in?

As you may tell, my bus has nothing at all at the moment.

I think you can get the j section or a fitting kit I think it's about 150 ish il try and think where from tho
 
Hi,I have a similar problem.Basically bought Westy last October part restored. Previous owner had started to fit new natural wood colour plywood headliner around hole for elevated roof.
Obviously full length roof required some joins as well as the J section steel to retain plywood.
Not certain as yet whether I have the full compliment of J steel but certainly need some pieces of plastic or similar double back to back U section to connect the edges of the adjoining pieces of plywood. I have not found either so far but admit with so many other jobs to do at present I have not looked very hard or been to shows to see what others use. If I find anything soon I'll let you know. Regards, racecarmike. :msn4:
