Default Replacemnt roof and frame

I've sourced a second hand AP2 roof for my AP1 for £400. This includes the roof, frame and motors. I'm going to try and fit the replacement roof myself. Am I best off removing my existing roof and cage and fitting the new roof and frame or is it easier to fit the new roof to my existing frame?

Cool, thanks. What hardware am I' going to need that I might not be able to recycle from the current hood?

I would try and get someone to help you. It's not an easy install and having some extra hands will be helpful. Make sure you also segregate all your fasteners, bolts, clips and etc...to where you got them. Its a pain in the ass.
