As bruce said to me "nothing fits a coily". I bought a front fibreglass
roof section, fitted it today and it seems to be too high to fit onto the
b pillar.

That looks like a FREEMAX top.
That is how it is meant to be, they are the only top that gives extra headroom.

Coily is the same as leafy AFAIK.

Marutis have the only different B-pillar, with a slight indentation across the top to accomdate the fibreglass ute back.

makes sense as the rear section fits the pillar, might have to just re sell this roof.

Sounds like the rear section is not the same manufacturer as the front........

It had been treated pretty poorly and there were quite a few cracks that had to be fixed or cut out, so I cut them out.
You wouldn't believe how many people have owned that thing since me!!!

As far as I know.... NO brand of roof and canopy can be mixed and matched.
