The problem with fitting a tilt and slide roof from a production car is that they all rely on the roof steel being stamped to the correct shape to form the sunroof recess and mountings for the sunroof. What we need is Eddie to find a suitable donor and then make a moulding from the roof of it for his replacement panel.

I rather think that if it leaks, I'll either ask you to remove it and replace with solid roof and new headlining, or (depending on headroom) find another electric sunroof to install instead (Mark 4 Golf ? Rover?.....or a manual...Ford Sierra ? We'll see.

This has now left us in a situation where we can not get parts to repair them. If the sun roof is leaking / broken, there is no need to worry as I now have a mould of the roof and can take the old electric roof out and reace it with bodywork again. This then leves you with a blank roof ready to install a different roof or not depending on what you want.
