Did I not read on the forum that another member was in the process of buying Kleynie's OSS repair business?I understadn I hate having an extra, be it AC or Sunroof, that doesnt work! Whats the point! OSS is nice to have light through though so has some benefits. There is no on left in the UK or club who can fix it anymore I understand now the Kleynie guy has stopped mending them?
Sham no else can step up and try fixing them, I understadn you need some special upgraded parts..
ive had enough of the oss , i know that the oss can not be but on a non oss car due to stronger supports but can a tin top replace the oss ? thanks kraig
thanks for thatyes its possivle, its also possible to retrofit the oss, two or three done this in german forum. Its complicated bus possible.

Vice versa should be much easier.
But most of the times its possible to repair the oss.

the links at the end are very helpfull, the lead to the threads where different problems where solved. So, keep your oss, repair and enjoy! Or replace with w working one.
I'm no structural engineer but I guess on the OS roof the glass panels are not offering support so the rest should be strong enough. So a body repair shop might be able to make a custom aluminium panel that is insert in the removed OS opening and then seal all round. But could they make the ribs and would it look nice? And body shops working in aluminium I believe are rarer and expensive.ive had enough of the oss , i know that the oss can not be but on a non oss car due to stronger supports but can a tin top replace the oss ? thanks kraig
