High Top T25 roof card help

Post by Silky »

Hi,
Finally got a van which is a good mix of good body work and decent interior (apart from the chintz overload!!) , but giving us a little room for customisation. It's a high top T25 and one of the first changes is to make it 4 berth rather than 2 - hopefully a simple mod. I'm struggling to find any "off the shelf" roof cards for the T25 but have found someone making them for later vans and he'll happily make one to size.

Can anyone let me know the dimensions of their T25 roof card please, I can measure the gap but am worried I might miss something.

Alternatively if anyone's got one for sale please let me know, I've googled and found nothing.

Thanks!

There are a great many different high top roofs fitted to 25s both at factorys and retro fitted. Try posting a few pics and folks will be able to help.

That's an EMC roof. Hopefully others will have pics of their roofs for you.

Yep EMC .I have one but fitted it out with a cuboard at fr and rear . when I first got the van it had a space for a brat up top but as I dont have any made it into storage,
What I will say is 'as got' ,it had no isulation nothing and was allways soaking in winter so I battened it out and insulated then boarded it, now its perfect,
Unless someone comes up with something youd best make up some templates for yourself, to me its the work of the devil up there with wood, hate the stuff.
Oh and nice looking van, lots of potential to make it yours.
