Hi, I drive a 325i covertable and the roof is leaking like a siv. I am tempted to get a brand new one from somewhere online.
My car is a 1986 e30 but most say the hoods are for an e30 1987 - 1993
Are they different or are the sellers just fools?
Anyone know if it is very hard to fit one well.
Here is one I found.

Also anyone know where to get a new one at a reasonable price?

Cheers, Leyton

All the same ... apart from manual or electric.
Do a search here and you will find a place in Swansea that will do a new roof for about 250 quid fitted.
Don't bother fitting it yourself unless you have the patience of a saint.

And it's not a siv ... rather sieve.

Sieve it is. Where do I do a search??

look up !

I think there are 3 types, manual, electro mechanical and electro hydraulic. Having said that I'd imagine that its only the frame that is different and the actual canvas part will all be the same.

I'm just going for the manual type. So lame but

I can't find the place you are on about through the search , what do I put in on the search

Search for a thread by Stevo Sideways, I think the title was retrim, or along those lines. It was posted in e30chat. That should get you the result.

nothing to be found or I might just be daft???

I searched retrim in e30 chat, looked for stevo sideways and a relevant thread and BEHOLD!!!
