John, i was quoted by a mate of a mate £150 for the labour to do it
his words "its proberly the easiest external fixed panel to fit, as theres no viasble fixings etc"
this was on a corsa, where the roof rails cover up the spot welds so dont know how diffrent it would be for a pug (205 with a sunroof ? )

Just spoke to a good body shop who painted my RST last year...they want £500 + parts which I though was resonable.
Probably gonna go for it if I can get the car at the right price

If I can get £500 off the purchase price then I'll go for it...
Its a 106 Rallye with a 16v conversion, Caged / big brakes / Bilsteins etc...etc...
205BHP/tonne should be nice
I'll post pics iff I buy it

Had a look at my Bro's Rallye today and they are relatively easy to replace [not like on a Mk4 Escort for instance]. Just drill out the spot welds and weld in the new one. The welds are concealed from the outside with a rubber trim over the roof
