hi all,
I am want to fit a Devon pop top to my tin top and wondered if any could tell me roughly how difficult it is and what's involved. Any advice or info would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
James

Re: Fitting a pop top to a tin top
I fitted a Westy Atlantic pop top to my tintop last year - obviously not a direct correlation to doing a Devon but, as a guide, took me and my old man 3 days with frequent tea / weather breaks.
Most nervewracking bit was the moment the angle grinder went in to make the first cut...
Measure once, then twice, then get someone else to check the measurements, then check the checker, then cut. But maybe only after another check.
