Edrose Sliding roof

[TRJAMES]

Mine has been retrimmed quite poorly. The vinyl has stretched and isn't bonded to the cross-members hence it bulges into a dome at anything above 5 mph and sags when stationary.

Finding a good second hand one is impossible. I have found a reputable company in London that retrims Webasto roofs in something called Everflex which sounds promising.

Anyone had a positive experience getting their Edrose retrimmed?

Had mine re-trimmed more than 15 years ago, but it hasn't been water tihjt till I taped over all the front and side edges  :-/

The Edrose is completed and the result is good. I have addded a strip of 3mm gasket rubber under (and slightly rearward) of the leading edge to form a better seal. We shall see.

I am now in the process of restoring the heater unit. On your blog you talk of a closed cell foam that you used to replace the seals at the front/rear and on the flaps. What thickness of foam did you use? who supplied it?

Any advice welcome.

Hot the foam from a local rubber store, who do al sorts of (industrial) rubber profiles and plates.
The rubber I used was only a few mm thick, not sure exactly how much.

Just measured some of the left-overs, it is actually 5mm thick

thanks for that, I've found a supplier. Now to get the rivet gun out!!

don't know where you all are located but I use these,

they sell down to a metre length and are very good,
north London based. :)

spread the word.

ask them to send you one of their printed catalogues it's easier to match trim and rubber profiles.
