Howdy,
I need to drill a hole in the roof for a camera cable to pass through. The ideal place would be right in the center, about 6" or so back from the windshield. The car has a headliner and it has to stay there (ESP autox car). The inside of the headliner has a dropped section right in the center. Is this a boxed section or something in the chassis? If I drill a hole through the roof, will I be able to feed the cable into/out of it if so? If nobody knows, I'll pull the headliner down and look, just hoping someone might have a gutted hard top car and could just look. Mark |

Mark,
As I remember, there is metal support there that's made of steel folded into a somewhat rippled shape. It looks like something you'd find between the T-tops of a T-top car. I think you'll find the headliner, a layer of steel (much of it is not flat) and then the roof panel. Can't you just run something around through the interior body panels and out the top of the hatch, tape the cord to the roof and be on the way? Is the cable long enough? Just thinking out loud. |
