    mine WAS a non-sunroof shell, then some idiot decided that he wasnted a glass sunroof, so the car was shipped off to some sunroof fitting butchers in cardiff, who cut a hole in the brand new corrado to fit some gay tilt and slide thing.


    needless to say, I will be replacing the roof panel.

    Scott, can you remember if you had the plate for the front feet with the nuts welded to it, inside or under the car?

    Thanks, Going to put an angled plate from floor up to the inner sill to reinforce where the front cage feet will mount to the floor, so will probably just bolt through it and use the plate with the nuts on under the car.

    Soundproofing will be going back in only went up the road half a mile and it was like I was driving with the doors open :lol:
