Bit of a long shot, but does anyone have one laying around they want to sell? Dont want an electric one, must be manual. Thanks in advance!

The trimming centre in hove still make and fit webasto or britax type sunroofs. They’re great quality, but not cheap, you’ll find them on Facebook.

I’m having one fitted to my Clubman next year, once I’ve saved up enough pennies...  4A13FBD4-95B8-4DC2-90C0-F48A4481EBE6.jpeg   12.97K   15 downloads

Thanks guys. I'll have to see how much they are from them and give mini josh a message. That's meant to say britax not brutal, auto correct!

I'm considering having a full length Webasto fitted to my Mk2, can you give hint at the full price...?

[swindrum]

I am picking up a car in a couple weeks that has a full length Britax/Webasto roof, I will be removing it and i will be available. Not sure the condition yet as I haven't actually seen the car in person. Also, the car is in Canada, so freight could be prohibitive.

If you can give me a message once its out and we will go from there swindrum :)

Any luck with this guys and girls?

FYI, I have an electric Aero-Top 1 (motor in back, bigger than Aero-Top II or Webasto H400) and I think it is great to have - it really declaustrophobic-izes my Mini.

Trouble is, it is nearly 30 years old and is shrinking in from the sides and has a few small wear and tear holes...that's why I stumbled on the sunroofsource people...I'm going to need to replace it soon and have been Googling my options.

Electrics are easily double the price of the manual sliding tops.

So long story short: I can't vouch for their quality yet as I have not bought one from them yet.

(But they are very responsive to inquiries from their website form, so that's positive)

 

And since the time when I originally inquired with them, they are now selling a "1976-1983 Mini 35" x 45" Sliding Ragtop Folding Sunroof Kit" specific manual unit:
