New Electric Roof

Post by Ian » Sat Mar 12, 2022 9:30 am

I've heard through the ether that JAL will shortly be offering an after-market electric elevating roof that can be retro fitted to low top Bongos. Will share more information when it arrives.

Update from JAL:

NEWS-Semi electric roof assist poles

Many people prefer the reliability of a Manual lifting roof, in case of electric fails which indeed is very understandable. JAL is now in production with an electronic pneumatic roof pole. This is custom built for our roofs , but can be adapted easily for others also. So customers can now have the largest super headroom roofs on the market which can be opened at the press of a button.
