xB roof dimensions? rag top?
 
can anybody give me the dimensions for the xB? what does everyone think about installing a rag top... i think that flat rectangle roof is perfect for a full open rag top the whole lenght of the roof...

Look on the scion website and I'm sure you can find dims. there. From what I hear though the xB handles like crapola with a ragtop.

A guy had one at one of our meets. Although It's not my look exactly, the size of the opening was awesome. There's also a huge Webasto sunroof that opens half the roof practically...

how much would something like that cost to do? I was thinking about doing it last night? dose it really handle like crap? why would it make such a difference?

TheScionicMan 12-15-2004 11:06 PM

I guessing he means that it affects the center of gravity by adding that weight to the top of the car, but I haven't heard any sunroof owners complaining...

(excluding tCs of course)

i'd much rather prefer the webasto huge glass roof.

YEah but how much for a good rag top?

The roof needs to be reinforced if you remove or cut the cross supports.
Typically you would weld or bolt in a strong metal frame that joins
the two sides together before you put in the rag top.

If they forgot to do this, it would explain
why the body flexes a lot.

the dimensions on the Webasto ragtop are
Fabric: 44 1/2" x32 3/4"
Opening: 24 1/4" x 25 1/8"
