Or what about the Rhino Rack Pioneer? Just to add a third option.

Hey, does anyone know the length and width of this sliding roof, measured from above?

Does anyone know whether it can still be ordered for HSE and X or V8?

In the configurator you can only select the fabric roof up to SE. It would be a shame because I love this option.

It was never offered for the V8.. to much wind noise on high speeds

That's right! Sorry

My question was more for HSE. I ordered an HSE 6 weeks ago and no one can tell me if I will get the fabric roof. It is no longer offered in any region except for the SE model or below. In that case it should have nothing to do with the engine and I hope it's just a mistake.

If anyone was considering fitting some, I would advise against having a roof lighting pod with the fabric roof. I bought a 2020 with this roof earlier this year, unfortunately had to reject it due to vibration issues at certain speeds, but the roof was no problem at all. The replacement I managed to find (2021, again with folding roof) had some lights fitted - at speed it was terrible, very noisy and putting my hand on the 'ribs' of the roof I could feel it trying to shake up and down (violently in high wind) to the point where I think long term it would have caused damage. I took the lights off over the weekend and now the roof is perfectly calm like my first car was. The lights will be causing a vacuum effect behind them.

It's a great option, I literally travelled to both ends of the country finding two though - nearly everything has the panoramic here.
