Where can I acquire a Websco for my Factory '73MGBNGT V8.

I'm in the USA.

Is it difficult to install?

Phil

Hi Phil,
do you mean the WEBASTO sunroofs/ folding roofs? They were also produced by BRITAX Wheathershields. But the production stopped years ago, as far as I know. Overhauled examples are quite expensive. Here is one adress:

Sometimes you find them on ebay. Hope this helps.

By the way. This is my first post here. I am from Hamburg/Germany, owner of a factory V8 and enthusiastic reader of this great website. Sorry for my bad english.

Bye,
Guido

I don't believe a new Webasto is available in a size correct for the MGB/GT any more.

I contacted Webasco a few weeks ago looking for a sunroof for my GT and was told by them they no longer make them.

Check out this company making similar roofs: http://www.slidingragtops.com/22.html?psid=5qwC-YCmpzYhIg6itBHA
They say they used to be a Britax installer.

Let us know how you make out.
