Looking to see where I can get hold of a nova pop up sunroof? As I'm caging my car the cage sits 10mm off the roof so therefore the standard sunroof unit won't fit it. Tried loads of places and have had no luck. Any ideas?:confused:

Get rid of the sunroof and weld in a plate, or if you can find one maybe a new food skin.

what sunroof do you have already
the tilt an slide sunroofs are alot bigger then the pop up ones so you cant just swap it as the actual glass is bigger
pm red tom he has a carbon sunroof blank for sale or

just a thought you may be able to trim some metal of your tilt an slide so it clears the cage
or maybe lower your cage some how

Go get a roof skin !!! Get a scrapped shell and cut the roof off !

Are there any cages that fit around a sunroof? perhaps a different cage is in order if you don't want to be blanking off the roof.

Chop 10 mm off the cage legs to give clearance job done
