D&C Trim, Blackpool (at the TVR factory). I think they said it was about £600-650 for a complete new roof fitted.

D&C trim, that's about the right price, i'm going to get mine done in black mohair. For a start these chaps know excatly what there doing compared to other places that might be a bit cheaper.

The Wedge I have just bought had a new roof fitted by:
Car Hood Warehouse. Cheesington Surrey. Tel 02083915326.
It cost £725, but is excellent. It Is different from the one on my 350, as it has a seam stiched above the side windows, which means that even if the window is slighly down, no water comes in.

Isn't that fairly normal? Pictures please...

BTW I still have a Brand New original TVR roof for sale if you want black.

I had this hood fitted onto this car. I enquired at around 6 or 7 places and went to see the work of 4 of them and the Car Hood Warehouse was by far the best workmanship wise. It wasnt the cheapest but nor was it the most expensive.

It looks great. Is that an upgrade from the one on the web priced at 225 (un-installed non-VAT)?
