Photos might take a while as I'm rushed off my feet with trip organisation at the mo' and the truck will get proper clean before it faces the market!
But yes, the rear sunroof is great. It's a Webasto (I think?) electric roof designed for a classic mini. Vinyl over steel bars, with a rigid steel surround, so very secure and I'd say stronger than the original tin-top. A real quality item, but not cheap.
Push the button and purrrrr.... fresh air and natural light. Can't overstate the morale benefits in hot climates or even the ropey British Summer. Anyone who's stewed in a van-backed Defender will understand.
On piste it lets in much less dust than the side windows which can now stay firmly closed. Sleeping in the back you get headroom, air and a view of the constellations.
I had some reservations before fitting, but it passed all field trials with aplomb.
