Universal Sliding Ragtops Instruction Manual

Dealer Inquiry.

The Sunroof Sourcetm

The following instruction manual came from an old box of folding sunroof goodies and for the most part applies to all versions of the Weathershield Sunway canvas sunroofs (that were actually vinyl).  We formatted it for the website but did not attempt to reword the text.  At times, it might read a bit oddly but you know how Brit's can talk funny.

STEP 4. (b) Cutting the Headlining
Details
Pierce the headlining
using a bradawl through the four ¼” dia. holes at the corners of the aperture. The bradawl should be held at as sharp an angle as possible. Where four holes have pierced the lining, cut well inside these holes making sure the corners of the cut are radiused to prevent headlining tearing.
NOTE
If interior light is installed in aperture area remove and re-position on cant rail.

(c) Removal of Listing Rails
Details
Cut out any listing rails that project into aperture, these listing rails may in some cases be removed but if their retention is necessary to maintain the headlining form they should be cut at the edge of the aperture, their ends being flattened and then riveted up flush to roof aperture.
(d) Removal of Roof Reinforcement Details
Remove any roof reinforcements that project into the aperture. Remove any insulation on the roof panel far enough back to miss the stiffeners.
