S3 Roof panels

[profstoff]

Having put a nice tear in one of my roof panels at SCH3 on Sunday :( it's time to elevate the priority of one of my jobs. Can anyone help me with where I can get roof panels recovered together with a new rear folding bit.
Also, it really bugs me that the panels have to stow diagonally in the boot. When I was buying the car I saw an S4 whose panels stowed horizontally and took up a lot less space. Does anyone know if the size of the passenger panel has changed over the years and if so will the later one fit an early S3.
Any help from you knowledgeable lot appreciated

There is a guy at Swindon who a couple of the guys have used.

Mine definitely won't go in horizontally, no matter how many times I try.

Yes! It was me that used Mike Jones in Wroughton,Swindon. Top Bloke!
Only wanted the panels done! But he had done a blinding job, that I am going to have to fork out and get the back hood done as well to 'match!', due to colour disfigaration and shinkness of 15 years wear and tear. he can be contacted on 01793 813333.
If you use him, tell him to keep a space free for my car in March!!!!
All the best

Recovered his last year IIRC, give him a call he may be able to help if he investigated getting the panels done..!

Good luck.
