seen a few scoobies with them, really like them. Anyone had an experiance with fitting one? do you need to drill through the roof or does a bit of gripfill/hard as nails do the job??

I believe mine is fitted with window bond. I take it you mean the stationary one not the flap that opens

yeah stationary one, from scoobyworld

Had a scoop put onto mine - glued and grilled roof (bolt goes into interior light fitting, so you don't see it), but it is easily the worst thing i have done to my scoob, the wind noise is horrific and once on the car really difficult to get rid of.

Don't do it

......unless you're planning on fitting wide arches and full graphics

Good idea! Because fitting a fake [or stationary, as you put it] roof vent onto a car, has got to be one of the stupidest things you can do..

It will actually slow your car down due to the increased drag coefficient, create loads of unnecessary wind noise and make you look like a freak when you have to explain to your mates why you put it there..

Admittedly the functional ones do look cool, but for Gods sake if you are going to get one of these things fitted go the whole hog and spend the £350 or so required to get a real one that allows air into the cabin fitted..
