Re: Cabby Rear Screen replacement

They do unzip but you need to remove the side flaps & there is a metal bar that holds the base of the screeen down, often these bars are very rusty!

Re: rover cabriolet roof

I've got a serviceable 'ear' for the drivers side.

It's been repaired with some bracing & riveting but does the job.

Also have a rear panel that's a little crusty but appears serviceable with a run over with a wire brush attachment.

Where are you based?

Re: 216 cabbie front window adjustment

Haha yes I'm sure you'll cope!

Manual does elaborate any further.

I stumbled across that set on eBay for sale locally think I paid £10 as the only bidder.

Re: Electric wing mirror glass fixing - should it be easy to snap into place?

This was pre me and yes i assumes someone whacked the mirror, i replaced the glass that was cracked but couldn't ever get it to fit right!

I kept meaning to buy a full replacement mirror (beware you need a cabriolet mirror though, Coupe one won't fit!)

Re: Rover Cabriolet swap over Hood help queation

Roxy I can't tell you how easy the hood is to swap over, it's almost literally two circlips, a couple of screws & 6 bolts.

Little more work if you are also swapping the rear window section.

You only really need a spare pair of hands to lift roof off / on.
