Hi guys.
In need of some help. I have what u believe was a Devon straight up pop top. It needed new bellows so I have bought the material to make my own. The bellows are relatively easy to make however when I took the old off it was held to the frame and the ply roof board with a plastic trim. I have no idea where I can get this from?? Can anyone help??

Cheers edd
 
Tricky without seeing the cross-section but I have found this chap to be very helpful with seals and trim etc:

Suggest phoning as the website is a bit clunky...

The other option might be Danbury themselves?

Or see if there is anything you recognise on here:

It should be aluminium strips that are riveted to the roof 'rim' front and back and the roof 'sheet' on the sides. The same dimension strips are then used to hold the bottom of the bellows down to the fibreglass bottom by means of self tapping screws that go straight into the oak beams underneath.

I think there's some photos in my build thread of the roof all stripped as I've gone to the length of building an entirely new elevating section.
 
I 've drilled out the rivets and put in a new pop top. I.m using stainless steel bolts up top and similar screws, need to put in a load of sealant and seek and seal. Not water proof yet covered in duck tape. Mine has those aluminium strips.
