Hi I've got a willy 1 with an aftermarket Wabasto electric sunroof fitted! It's been fitted for some time (at least 2004 but I reckon even earlier maybe after the car was first registered) and actually it's a quality part and install.

Trouble is of course it's not original. What are your thoughts on this kind of thing? You could say its period of the time.i.e. late 80's early 90's it was a very popular and common mod.

I have managed to get hold of a roof and headliner (from matt brown, cheers Matt) but its a massive job. What do you think?

big job, cost me a pretty penny in my valver for the fitting and painting :-)

If it works fine and doesn't leak, I'd leave it alone.Even in the future as the cars become ever rarer, it could be seen as a 'period modification'.And not forgetting, its nice to have a sunroof on a nice day!
