Pop top help needed

Post by **Kerri75** » 20 Mar 2007, 09:37

Please can anyone give me advise, I have bought a pop top (bellows) for my T25 and now just need to fit it, does anyone know who fits them or if it is possible to do yourself? I am from Cheshire but will travel to get it done.
Thanks for reading

Hi Dave

I have a picture but no idea how to attach it? Would love any help I can get, not prepared to cut a big hole in the roof myself.
Thanks loads for you reply

that would be a devon! really easy to fit! how much of it have you got? ie have you got all the interior trim parts or just the roof! is it in one piece or have you got the base canvas and cap seperately??

if you have the roof all together in one piece it can be fitted easily inside a day with two people! i still have all the measurements from when i did mine and i've got the special roof bending tool! have you see the wiki??

here are the pics from when we did matts!

i am more than happy to help, and if you are stuck for tools or space i'm sure kate would let us fit the roof on out drive!

to fit the roof it uses a mixture of pop rivets and a bit of silicone it make it look the part!
