Exmoor Beast Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 I have noticed a slight droop appearing on the headling of our new Disco just where the sunroof should be. If there had been a sunroof fitted it wouldn't be there thinks i....(light bulb comes on in head) why not fit a sunroof! searched in vain for a sunroof via the usual sources, has anyone retro fitted one? where did you get it etc etc...

Fatboy Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 Will, Before you fit a sunroof to the Disco, you could simulate it to see if you really want it. First, wind the window down an inch, insert hose pipe and switch on tap. After about 10 mins, it will be just like having the real thing.

BogMonster Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 more to the point did you get it to not leak I wouldn't put a sunroof in as they seem to be a permanent leak! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imspanners Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I know peeps that have had webasto roofs fitted to their cars... My father had the Hollandia300 fitted to his Volvo and never had an ounce of trouble with it. I daresay the roof-leak problem wont happen with this style of sunroof as they're not LR products!

gelf Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 probably best not to look at the rear floor panel, a friend has a P reg where he has had to weld the foot wells in it....... not good really, but we keep buying them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freeagent Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 mm, i think the fist thing i'll be doing when i get mine is pulling all the carpets up and painting the floor (if theres any metal left) with bitumastic paint, or something similar... the sunroofs in my dads disco had been sealed with mastic when he bought it... and thats the way they'll be staying... i certainly wouldn't cut any more apertures into the body sheel, we have enough trouble keeping water out of the existing ones...
