from pictures I've seen, there don't seem a lot to it
although pictures would be great, as the soft tops seem to be like rocking horse poo, my missus is a seamstress (repairs motorbike leathers) so I'm sure with a pattern/measurements she could easily whip a copy up

Shower curtain? Haha.
Good tip is to soak interior in petrol and add an ignition source couple of matches usually work. Then purchase yourself a discovery or defender!!!

the piece of metal thats holding the top out for rear head height, how does that fit into the rear?
is the skirt tightened around the opening with a drawcord of some description, or elasticated?

It's a three piece round bar, it just pushes into the mounts on the pillars and its own tension holds it in, it goes thru a tube in the canvas to locate it. There's a zip up each side, plastic channel clips along the top, bungees and Velcro at the bottom

I can see we are all going to have to watch what we write with this fella about! Surely he must have a section of chassis to weld? Fingers crossed

Funny you keel mentioning rust mines 19 years old and doesn't have more than surface rust
can't wait to see a rust free 19yo freelander
Hi manxmike, I have a freelander 1 (2000) and the full land rover fitting instruction book that came with my lander for all the roofs, apart from the shower cover shown in the large photo that has been posted. I have printed the book in separate pages and also managed to put them into PDF format. Only problem is don't know how to add this format or photo's to this site, but if you would like a copy contact me and will get them to you some how.

I've got a soft roof now in very good nick, but no instructions so would have been good if you could have shared.
Maybe I'll add some after I've worked it out!

There are instructions in the Rave manual I believe - its at the end of 1 of the sections in the accessories bit.
