Re: Dormobile roof parts.

Frame, springs for side arms, side arms, hinges, vent, vent seal, vent closing mechanism, hoops, outside fasteners and canvas are all available from Dormobile, but at mouthwatering prices.
You will also need the aluminium strips that hold the canvas to the roof. (again available at many ££££)

have you looked on terri ann's website - expedition land rover for pictures?

Hinge is on the top side (when open) if that helps ?

Do you have the opening mechanism?

Phil has the chassis numbers, from a visit to Gaydon, and I very much hope that when he returns from his oceanic travels, be might let me have them. That would allow a much better comparison between what some know and others are helping us to know !
