Roll hoop mesh

[Mars1974]

Hi there guys. Can anyone tell me if the mesh inside the passenger and drivers roll hoop can be replaced? Mine has perished . I wont be doing it myself but would be interested to know if there is a kit that can be purchased?

Yes- I’ve done this several times on e85s

Material can be found on eBay quite cheap and have a search on here for how to do it well- keeping the tension on it while you replace it is key

thankyou i am thinking of asking my panel beater to do it for me as i am no good at repairs...the roll loop itself doesnt need to be replaced does it? Do i just look for wind breaker mesh or is there a specific code? Thankyou for your help

No worries

The hoop itself has a rubber inlay that when removed and a couple of metal clips are removed the mesh pops out

The rubber insert also helps the tension on the mesh

If it helps I can do it for you I’ve a few metres of mesh left

On the hoop inserts, how do you get it pulled tight over the Perspex?

On the inserts it’s easier to keep tension
