Rear roof short after bulkhead removal?

[simonnwt6]

Have just removed the bulkhead and the front section of the roof doesn't sit under the removable strip that in the cab area. Theres a gap.

Is there a wider strip on a Kombi? Or is it a new roof panel ?

Thanks

On my t 5.1 kombu conversion , I used sikaflex to stick a strip of hardboard to the back of the panel.
Strip sat fine then without roof flapping about

Can buy the correct one from VW for about £40 if I remember correctly

Ok thanks. Looking at a wood style replacement but if not I’ll try VW for a longer versions
Thanks

Does anyone have a part number for this please? And is the SWB and LWB front panel the same length?

Thanks

I've just contacted my local dealership and have been told they can't look up the panel I need (LWB with bulkhead removed) without the reg of a van that came without the bulkhead! This is totally crackers! I can't believe they don't have one in the carpark like that!

Same here - It's been fine and you can't see it.
