Electric roof question. Can it be done?

:lol: wouldnt go more than 5

Certainly wouldnt go anything near 30.

the wind can get between the hood and liner and below your hood out

its more of a conveince to still make sure you are stopped to save switching of and re inputting your immobiliser (if you have one)

I remeber a many years ago when my mate had a brand new Rivarge and he did his,
We pulled away from a pub one night and dropped the roof as we left… some bloke ran after us as he wanted to know how it was do able as he also had a Cabby.

Didn't tell him. :D

Now just need to get the clocks workinga again, just changed teh plugs and leads, fired her up and the dash clocks and lights (batt, oil, indicators) are not working. ???
