I've got one but it doesn't look like that.
It's more like
1) Lower windows
2) Unlock softtop and raise flap.
3) Press and hold button to lower hood.

Electric roof is slightly broken at the moment though, LOL

If any of you guys want a simple photocopy of the item, send me a SAE largish and I will do a copy which you can mount on card. PM me for my address.

I still have my sunvisor roof instructions, but the plastic covering is all yellow and crappy.
I'm kinda glad that other cab users have the same difficulty getting the roof to fold away properly, is there something mising as i'm sure the roof wasn't designed like that..!!??

Mine's not too bad, I don't have to get into the car, but I do have to walk round both sides to 'tuck' it in...Stealth wrote:I'm kinda glad that other cab users have the same difficulty getting the roof to fold away properly, is there something mising as i'm sure the roof wasn't designed like that..!!??
Apparently the tension straps should force the roof into the right folds, they can 'relax' with age and aren't replaced normally when a new roof goes on. You would order them separately. Even when I said 'is there anything else I might need" to the company that replaced my roof, they didn't mention it. The bloke who came and fitted it, mentioned they were "a bit old"!

Mine got the same problem. Whenever I open the roof, I need to jump out and turn the bar located in the middle towards the rear side. I also need to fold the root by myself at the same time to make sure it folds good. Otherwise, it will be a mess.
Anyone can help to cure this common problem?

I still have mine too!!! Although the end is a little tatty and it seems to have welded into the platic folder.
I have the same problem with my old roof. I have to tuck in each side as I open it. Can't afford a new roof yet
On the other hand, I did knock Ԛ£1100 off the asking price because of the roof!!!
