Dear friends.
I am starting to do some work to my classic mini and I was thinking of putting a panoramic sunroof that comes from the new model of the BMW Mini.
I have seen people from other forums that have done such a job and they describe it as a straight forward easy job. Has anyone heard anything about such modification??
Any recommendations???
Regards

Cut the roof off the bmw cut a hole in the mini roof trim thebmw roof to fit the hole and weld it up. seems kind of obvious

That sounds easy on me too but perhaps someone who has undertaken such work might give the inside for it. Some people say on the forum that the weight might be a problem so the roof will need reinforcement.
Thats as far as i have gone.
Any othee suggestions are welcome.

Hi guys, I'm just about to order and have a panoramic sunroof send over, along with everything I need (hopefully) to have it all in working order (motor, the loom etc).
I'm a novice at best and living in Spain these days so I will have the language barrier.

Does anyone know what loom I should use/have fitted before I get it posted? I want the Spanish to have to do as little as possible! Haha, for obvious reasons!;):)
