Noob question though, what happens with the folding roof? I have a non glass one. Do they fold ok? do you need to unzip the window first? ta.

It depends which roll bar you get. I've got a Hard Dog M2 Sport, which works with the soft top, and have a friend with a GC Fab bar and that works too. The thing I don't like about the TR Lane bars is they're quite narrow - Im sure they work fine, I just prefer the look of other bars.

Unless you want a bunch of mk1 parts!

OK - I'm not in a rush - the HD HCDD is arguably the best version you can get, but it's a non-glass screen / non-hard top version and I've kept back a mint mk2 roof with glass rear screen and hard top from the mk2 I am breaking, so at some point I'll swap it for something else so that I can fit them...
