GT webasto roof removal

Post by Not_Anumber »

Im going to make a start on the paintwork of my BGT. Does anyone have some pointers please on how to dismantle and remove the webasto fabric sunroof. Are there any gotchas such as fixings that tend to rusted into place etc I need to be wary of ?

Anyone know where the bolts are and whether the headlining needs to be removed ?

Chris,
If you use the BBS site - go to MGB Technical & then type in Webasto Roof under Archives & then go down to the W section & you will find several threads which may assist you re it's fixings or repair etc.
