The sun roof has a pair of support rails inside the roof opening edges to support a number of sliding crossbars onto which the fabric cover is fitted. The roof has a double skin with the lower skin (3) forming the inside trim. The rear of the lower trim is attached to a shaped panel (3) onto which the sound damping layer (36) is applied on the inside. The foam type sound damping is secured to the shaped panel by clamping bars (32) at each end, fitted with threaded fasteners. The opened roof folds into a compact position at the rear of the opening. ADVANTAGE - Quieter opening action, simple to fit sound damping.
