All Westfield cages are the same, only difference is between narrow and wide body cars. There shouldn't be differences on roofs between FW and ZK.

Nicely done 👍🏼

Just sorned mine for the first time! But only because Iam doing jobs that willl stop me getting out over the next couple of months. I will have to treat the car to something for what I’ve saved in tax 😂

I had an MSA roll bar roof and that secured to the rear stays which would go on ZK or FW… (there’s a You tube video for it) as for FIA roll cage I believe it’s the same cage for both cars also? But maybe someone with an FW and roof will confirm.

I've just retaxed my Westfield for another year, £360, that's £1 per day (nearly). My other 2 cars, Alfa Romeo Giulietta and VW Up! are both £20, 0.05479205p per day. Why? Will my 1991 registered Westfield on a Q plate ever be tax exempt?

Just did a quick google, looking at their site nothing listed is FW unless the cages are the same across all the Westfield models

Monthly meet for a natter and a pint, usual venue, The Crown Inn Bridport DT6 4AX from 19.30. Usual informal format, come and go as you please. Final one of 2025, where did that year go!!

Have you used it yet? Does it work ok? I tried something similar but made up of spacers and struggled to get the bushes out..had to use a press in the end.. I hope it does work well because it looks a great solution

Just finished some ducting for the rad and sealing the joint between the fan and rad due to the bracket. Hopefully a lot better cooling when needed.

Before I order one, I don’t suppose anyone has one in good condition they would like to sell?

Soft bits for sevens are the best in my opinion

I made one of these for my own car, and have a few spare sets manufactured as back ups. The kit will come with the metalwork needed to make the unit. You would need to make 8 folds, and then bolt the parts together. The folds would depend on the exact measurements of your car. I will send out some instructions to use as guides, but you could customise it further if you wanted to. I can price in fixings if you need however you may wish to use your local supplier. Some additional modifications may be needed to suit your car, but it fits in my SEIW nicely without fuss. The main features are a cubby to put stuff, and the switch panel which can be replaced if you later choose to change the switches, without changing the whole front piece. There's also a small compartment on the top, out of sight to hide things under the dash. I've priced them close to what I paid, I just want them to find a new home! There's a bunch of photos attached to show the parts and the assembly of mine. Hopefully these can be if use to someone! I have 1 full kit in stock, however I have 2 sets that's are missing the side panels, which I can remanufacture if the demand is there or you can make your own. £53 posted or £50 if collected from Hailsham. Hopefully these rambles make sense.. cheers!

Are there other suppliers out there that make wet weather roof's for our cars or is it direct from Westfield if you don't go down the custom route?

let me make sure everything works as it should then I will see if I have any spare time over Christmas!

Only just finished machining yesterday so I haven't had a chance to use yet - will update once I have!

Hi what diameter is the silencer. Did it come of a Westfield. Very subjective but what tone sound did it make. Cheers Dafydd

Looks good! Have you tried it yet?

That looks really excellent @DavidMiller. Could you be persuaded to machine more? I'm sure you'd be able to sell a batch easily?

Brilliant, thanks very much that's going to be a very useful tool 👍

bush_install_tool Drawing v1.pdf Tried to get all the information on ones sheet - tolerance is pretty loose on this as long as it fits. It should be pretty self-explanatory in how it is used. The tube component has a rebate for the wishbone so fits on one way around. The part that fits on the end of the tube is designed to be reversible - so is used one way around with the tube for removal, then the other way around without the tube for install. The smaller component is used for removal of the old bushing (and install of the new one) and has clearance for the inner crush tube on one side to ensure it presses against the outer metal sleeve of the bushing.

2 weeks left to have some westie xmas fun.

I fitted one to my Tiguan, unfortunately I’m away at the mo and all the info is at home. There is a thread on the MK2 Tiguan forum, as Sooty says you replace the number plate light, installation was quite easy, but you have to re-code the ecu. If you are ok with odb readers and so on you should enable to do it.

Super idea. Do you have the dimensions of the bits? I've got all the rear bushes to replace and don't have a press either.

Finally managed to find time to make a tool for removing/installing suspension bushings as I don't have a press.
