I will be needing a new roof on Mrs. Loo-knee's Escort Cab.

Just wondered if it is a huge job and what is entailed in fitting one as I could save myself quite a few quid doing it myself....

[nick v6]

is it electric or manual

[Darth Loo-knee]

Does that matter then? just thought with it being an electric roof it would have just had rams powering it up...

[Sad]

Had to read this because I thought you were talking about fitting a cabriolet roof to a mig??!!

i'm not sure about the electric one's
the manual are straight forward

[Darth Loo-knee]

I maybe wrong but would have thought they would be the same really, just that the rams power it..... will have to do a little googling

if you need hand give me a shout i'm sure we can get it sorted

Why don't you make one out of bin bags and Duck tape

Would be better than the original fit........I wouldn't fit a new one as it will be to heavy for the rust ridden pile of shite to take

take a look at that
looking at it you can just change the vinyl and not the whole mechanism

I used to have an escort cab and yes you can just change the vinyl, but it is far far easyer and quicker to change the whole lot.
