Samba Sunroof Installation

Samba Sunroof Installation

by Johnwhite » Mon Jan 23, 2006 7:42 pm
Samba Sunroof Installation! I am looking for some assistance with the installation of my new sunroof outer material on my samba. I have a trimmer who is willing to take on the task but we require some info on certain things. I am in the Bristol area so if there is anyone out there who could advise me or even better let me have a look at their roof it would be greatly appreciated. You can contact me via email or phone 07971575222. Thanks. John

i wonder if the folks at paris beetles would help you? they advertise in volksworld mag and sell ragtops for buses, so maybe their instructions for that kit would cover what you need to know?

Thanks for those instructions I have shown them to the trimer and he seems more confident now. If we were to run in to difficulties where abouts are you in case we needed a look at your bus?
