I have orded my new roof and its on the way. smile

Before I start to remove the old one, is there a guide, how to, video, pictures or any information on removing it? Only it might save on thinking time.

Just had a quick look at your website (hope you don't mind). It looks like you have Bob Smith's old Phaeton Peugeot, small world.

Thanks to your help the roof came off trouble free.

I took some photos along the way, to help future people.










All the bolts are 10mm, the 3 rear bolts are behind the boot lining. The two in the sides are accessed from behind the carpet flaps that access the door locks (and are a total pain in the ass).

The car has now gone off to the spray shop for a respray. smile
