Don`t think you`ll get a new roof panel now, and the correct basket-weave pattern isn`t available anywhere. Best option is to remove the wooden panel from the roof (time consuming but do-able) and re-cover it with either stick-on vinyl or leather-cloth or fuzzy roof lining material, my mate did his a couple of months back, looks OK

or fur

or not




too much cider sorry.

Thanks, but how do I get it off...? I can undo all the screws but there is two runners along the side holding it all in....?

Oh someone said wall paper.. any good?

if your gonna wallpaper, how about artex!!

Or polystyrene ceiling tiles for that added H&S factor.

The panel slides out backwards. You need to remove the row of bolts at the rear edge that holds the top roof storage rack onto the cab roof for a start. Then the side storage shelves in the rear, either side, have to come out so the panel has room to slide back. Not a quick job I`m afraid

Thanks, will give it a go!
