My plastic window is in great condition but I rarely use the roof because Im too lazy and embarrassed to do the boxster chop, so really need to get this upgrade done.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just had a new roof with glass window, with demister fitted by BAS International (Wales, UK). Service was excellent, quality looks superb. The window is very good. The demister lines are very thin (their window used to have thick lines a few years back). Also there it says 'PORSCHE' in the lower part of the window, about 3 inches across looks great! £695 all in.

POST 2Original post

Hi Tom, any chance you could post the details of where you had your new roof fitted? I'm in the UK and i'm looking to do the glass window upgrade

POST 3Original post

Carhood Warehouse in Surrey are really good and very competitively priced. Not terribly convenient for Stoke on Trent, obviously!

POST 4Original post

But they will recommend a fitter they trust or supply.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

BAS make the roofs themselves. They supply many UK fitters. any of these fitters charge a premium to fit. Go to BAS direct and you will get the same roof, direct from manufacturer, at a lower price. They have people driving from all over to get fitted by them They will even drive you into town so you can go shopping whilst the fit (took about 3.5 hours) - lots of shops and food to eat. or a cinema Products » Car hoods » Select your Cabriolet » Porsche Hoods » Porsche Boxster Glass window upgrade Supply and fit - BAS International

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

POST 7Original post

POST 8Original post

POST 9Original post

It looks like the glass windows from BAS is larger dimameter than other aftermarked glass tops, and its positioned up higher?

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

no idea, I haven't seen other aftermarkets. all I can say is it looks awesome to my eyes. good riddance to the milky plastic crap

POST 11Original post

Looks great did they wire in the heated window too? My plastic window is in great condition but I rarely use the roof because Im too lazy and embarrassed to do the boxster chop, so really need to get this upgrade done.
