    I'd replace them with stainless bolts if you can get them, or they'll look pony in no time.

    Small update, I'd like to say with @Lardy help I did this but the truth is @Lardy actually done 99.9% of the work and its made a huge difference.

  9. Headlining looks nice, is a full length headliner cut to fit the pop top?

    So more updates....

    Had friend do some work on the van as I'm a little skint, he's no expert in this but highly skilled. He's done a great job and I'm happy.

    So to finish the poptop a little bit of fresh paint on the top and a new seal.

    Thanks - it's looking a 1000 times better than it did at the start of this year.

    Its had a spray, new roof lining and new canvas all in I think the poptop has cost me just over £600...

    There's been a few other bits done like outer seal under sliding door and some inner seal on the rear quarter that was really rusty but pictures for them were quite difficult to get at the moment.

    I'm going to slowly strip out the interior sand floor and paint in rust oleum. No rush on this, only when I can be bothered, weathers good and if the wife lets me out.

    Whats the material / carpet called that you used to line the pop top roof? Need to order a bit for my westy roof to stop my daughter getting wet from condensation :D:D
