I used to install Hollandia roofs. we used to do them for about $1800, $1500 trade, the unfitted unit cost $1100. we did brand new Falcons and Commodores, HBD and FPV install the exact same roof as we did - TVS 43.5.

you can install this roof in two ways; the standard way which is how all "factory" Falcons and Commodores are done and Rolled edge, which means you don't have that rubber stripe around the cap, this will cost about $1000 more.

ALL sunroofs leak, but they all have drain pipes that run down the front and rear pillars to the ground. the main reason why sunroofs leak into the cabin is because the drain pipes have been blocked somehow.

if you're serious about having a good looking 'roof, then get a rolled edge and make sure that the roof is resprayed by the best spray painter you know, as with Ford colours a sh!tty job will stand out like dog's ball.

good luck.

Dave.

So if I'm not willing to pay $1000 just for a rolled edge, I'm not serious?

Got the sunroof installed yesterday. I have to say the guys did a great job. Just wish this rain would rack off so I can put it to some use.

you can't let one of my posts go by without having a dig, can you Rob?

And no, you wouldn't be serious about having a good looking 'roof, you would be more worried about the enjoyment that only a hole in your turret can give...

Calm down. We know you didin't install the sunroofs, you just handed the professionals their tools and got their lunch for them. Hole in my turret? Typical comment from someone who 'turned in' their XR6T. Disgruntlement at it's finest.

Thanks fordBOY
