Hi all,
does anyone have a hood which has the stiffner panel attached to the rear of the body above the back seat?
If so could you tell me how the hood is attached to the stiffner panel?
thanks

I think it's Velcro and pressure against the body and fixing panel.
Whiffs did it like that I think.

Thanks Shaggy hopefully I can get one sorted soon.

If its the Whiffs style there is a fibreglass moulding, which I guess you are calling the stiffener panel, that fits on the top of the tub and is held by 4 bolts with big plastic tops (cant think what they are called) to the body.
Under the fibreglass bit is Velcro.  The hood fits over that and Velco on the hood attaches it and the bolts hold the lot down and let you lift it enough to undo the Velcro.

Bit of a late reply in here, but my roof's a Whiffy....

Whiff makes the three section fibreglass clamping frame using the buggy itself as the mould...

Rather than try to explain it.... Here are some photos of Stell's roof and also a link to Whiff's site, showing his
step by step photos of how he made mine!
