Hi,
I have just bought a 1993 Citroen C15 Hylo Romahome and I need to replace the pop-up sunroof glass as, when trying to force the sunroof closed, the glass shattered. I have registered with a few websites for spare parts from breaker yards but I want to know if I can purchase the exact glass panel I need. As a temporary measure I am planning to cut some perspex to size and either fix it into the hole although this will cause a problem as water will then gather if it is not completely flush with the roof or possibly cut the perspex to be larger than the hole and seal it around the edges to the van roof. Will a silicone sealant be suitable ? Will this damage the paintwork on the top of the van ? I do not really mind the sunroof not opening again so really just want to waterproof the hole while allowing light in.
