The Webasto sunroof if fitted correctly and with the perspex wind deflector has few drawbacks.
Whilst I would not cut a hole in the roof now, if the hole was already there, I would always continue the benefits.
In the mid 1970's I had a Webasto fitted to my MGBGT V8 and it made a otherwise very stuffy car a real cruising pleasure. The wind deflector is a very important item to have.
My 1964 built Volvo P1800S had a Webasto fitted presumably sometime during the late 60's or 1970's. By the time I bought the car the inner lining was missing and there was no wind deflector.
Having gone to considerable trouble to get the parts I needed and with the help of Simon and Keith at Templar & Wilde this was re-installed. There have never been any leaks in 4 years and when open there is no flapping noise or turbulence. In fact there is considerably less noise than having the side window open.
I have now had three cars with sunroofs, and not had leaks or staining of the inner lining.
