Good day everyone,
I've always taken care of my drain plugs and made sure that the water can drain, so that the roof motor does not get wet and break. Naturally, it broke anyway after 3 months of sunshine.
So I'm now looking for a member (or anyone really) who can relocate the motor to the boot recess and ideally repair the old motor, too.
I did search a bit in the forum but can't seem to find anyone who offers it near or in Kent (I'm in Canterbury).
Does anybody know of anyone who can do the job somewhere here in the South East (I'm happy t drive a couple of hours as well but would be glad if the whole thing could be done in a day including the driving).
Thanks a lot for any help!!!

bowser134,
You seem to be the go to on this rather annoying roof motor issue! Don’t suppose you could help me out with mine please? Hate to ask but considering I’ve spent a small fortune on replacing my water pump and thermostat this week! What would you charge?
TIA
