sketch showing roof props for you @nicko_1982
roof bolts with rubber washers all stainless bolts and washers
this looks worse than is but i put plenty of silkaflex on and right up sides to seal tunnel thru the roof cant see this when skylight is down , also proper dorm rubber skylight seal and bolts to skylight mech sealed in to avoid leaks ,sticks like poo good stuff ,they use on caravans .
view of tunnel tube from underside ,ie inside van , i finished mine off to roof lining with trimmers edging in black . Couldnt get roof up today as in carport and got tied up with other stuff. roofs quite dirty at mo too . If i can help with any other pics or stuff shout .

 

Im in Burford, my roof is all exposed at the mo as i havent put the headlining back, if you want a look

 

Only cost you about a tenner to replace all the rivits, a couple of decent drill bits and two packs of rivits, rest is just time and effort

 

Thanks guys,
Keith do you go to any of the wilts v dub club meets.

 

Nah, doesnt help that the bus isnt on the road yet

 

Here are some pics of the one that I did...

Roof light/vent, had been "sealed" using polyfilla and bathroom mastic




Vinyl took some shifting... had to heat it up with the paint stripper gun, then scrape/peel it off


Duct tape/sticky plastic as the rubber seal had completely gone


Did some bare metal strips to use the bonding adhesive


Roof cap ready for old top to go in to it!!


Some weight for 48hrs to allow the bond to cure


I then added some polystyrene to give it some insulation


Cut the hole for the Fiamma roof vent

 

Retrimmed






And then back on the van

 

good luck @nicko_1982
