Hi,

Can anyone suggest who to use for getting a new hood for my cabby and roughly how much to get it fitted?

Cheers.

Bill Ramsay Coach trimming in Edinburgh have come highly recommended to me by a garage who use them for E Type Jags, Roller and high end, classic convertible roofs and interior replacement. They've been going a long time.

Not sure about prices but when I spoke to Bill himself about a cab window he said he'll only fit Dealer windows. Rear sew in window kit from my local dealers was over £200..... I got the same kit for less then half that elsewhere.
