[QUOTE="hotrodthug, post: 636468, member: 31763"] Cheers [USER=28771]@fallingoffalot[/USER]! Yeah it was factory, leaked like a sieve, got stuck more times than a sticky thing in a tight gap and the mechanism was quite good at breaking. The current thinking is: [LIST] [*]Replace the broken Paris Beetles rag roof that's hiding the old sunroof (I believe they do/did an option if you had an old one that needs a refurb) [*]Source a Devon or Dormobile and refurb/upgrade. There's one on PartsEmporium at the minute and its a comfortable price but needs a total refurb. [*]Fit a SpaceRoof pop top which is pricey but top quality [*]Source the unicorn that is the outer skin and take lots of photos and measurements and see if I can get a few made [*]Weld it up as you suggest [*]Fit a non opening sunroof if I can source someone to make one [/LIST] I'm not sure I like any of those options right now :( [/QUOTE]
