Aftermarket Elevating Roof

Hello,
I have a 2002 tintop. Can anyone recommend a company that fits aftermarket elevating roofs to tintops? I would rather avoid one with a front spoiler if at all possible.
Thank you

I had one fitted by Skyline Roofs in Weston Super Mare. Very strong and solid with excellent durable canvas. Ian Taylor was impressed when he saw it.

I phoned JAL the other day as they do a 1.99m elevating roof conversion, which is why I bought a tin top to get under height restrictions....chap told me they won't fit a roof onto a Bongo they are not supplying. Must not need the custom I guess/the hassle of it?

I too am having the problem of trying to find someone to fit an aft to a tin top bongo as mine is a 2000 model, lots to fit a vw t4/5/6 at reasonable prices of 2k or less. bongos seam to go cheap and value for money but the asking price for pop tops at 2.5k and 3k seam Ludacris considering van price range . surely there is 1 man bands out there that can do the job just as well but for a more reasonable price like it would cost to a vw.

They appear to have now stopped catering for Bongo's
