Title: T TOP Roof Panel Replacement
Post by: d_hache on June 08, 2021, 01:34:35 PM

Hello everyone, as anyone ever used this replacement T Roof Panel?
If so how is the fit and does it have those little pins for the winder trim clips?
My roof skin \ A pillars are just to damaged to repair.
Let me know
Thanks

I guess not to many people have replaced their T TOP skin :)

I replaced the whole roof from a donor car. Never just a skin but I did remove the skins from the A pillers to make the sleeves used to join the old to the new. I then put the skins back on.

Same as Form, I used a donor car. I remember doing lots of research on how to swap and I don't think I saw any reviews on the OER roof before the last TAC crash. I have never seen a roof skin swapped, just full roofs although if you attempt, I would be interested in following along. Good luck with the project.

Thanks for the info

FormTA do you have pictures when you did your roof swap and possible A pillar repair's?
