Drivelodge Pop Top Roof DIY install
Hi,

My first question is, has anyone attempted to fit a drivelodge pop top themselves, if so how did it go?

Finally, is it a system where you have to cut into the existing roof or is ita case of raking the old roof off and then the new on with the poptop all ready installed on to the roof?

Thanks

Hi robbo,
I fitted it by myself, together with my Buddy. Was a Weekend Job. You have to cut the existent roof to fit a subframe.

worth buying a second hand roof and keeping your for spare? Less time off road as you could install the pop top before fitting the roof
