Chester15 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Hot sure if correct section of the forum but I am now convinced that my only option to get my 2011 370Z Roadster roof working is to replace the roof itself. The pivot asembly on both sides is "mangled" and parts of the metal lift assenbly have broken off. I have the detailed guide on removing the softop etc so don't think it is too much of a diffficult task if i can source a replacement. Anyone know of one for sale anywhere?

Andy_Muxlow Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 It depends on where you're based. The carhood warehouse in sevenoaks are awesome. There is also a place in Chester somewhere that do them also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester15 Posted May 12 Author Share Posted May 12 I am in South Wales. I have been in touch with Torqen, who kindly contacted more through thios forum and who are based in Luton but individual parts are not supplied by Nissan therefore whole roof would be required and the price from Nissan was around £12k just for the roof itself - and that's without fitting costs on top. Will look into Carhood Warehouse and I think it is Hoodtech in Chester. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Perhaps time to get the complete roof off to fully assess the damage, and a few hours of fabrication should get you sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester15 Posted May 12 Author Share Posted May 12 I think that may well be a good shout - do you think fabrication is feasible? Cant get schematics of moving parts i believe - If i dont have the missing parts then i see a problem - i even thought if i could get a replacement roof and get missing parts 3D printed from scanning the donor but maybe i am over thinking....?

ZMANALEX Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 You should get most of the information and schematics that you require from the factory workshop manual. This would be a good starting point. Perhaps have a look for a breaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
