Replacement Gearbox And Cables For Remis Rooflight
by Barry Summers (18 Aug 2024)
(5/5)
Perfect replacement for the original. The job probably took a couple of hours. The key for perfect fit is to make sure that the sliders that move the lifting arms for the roof light are in exactly the same position either side. If you are just a fraction out, this will result in one of the hooks that hold the lid down not hooking over the locking bar. Not too bad a job for the average handyman to take on. It looks complicated at first glance but actually isn't. It's advisable to take photographs of the original installation before starting.
Remis Rooflight Mechanism Replacement

I fitted this replacement Remis rooflight mechanism in about 3hrs. It's a bit fiddly and the attached Remis instructions in black and white are not clear. You can download much clearer colour ones from the Remis Web site. Take your time and concentrate and it can be fitted OK. Leisureshopdirect delivered promptly as always. They are my go-to for my Westfalia campervan
Excellent Service From Leisureshopdirect And Top Quality Product

The replacement Remis Vario 2 lifting mechanism is a fully comprehensive kit, with everything including new screws and cable support brackets. The original winder had been overtighted and the cable guide had broken allowing the rooflight to lift when driving. It was unrepairable.
The reason I offer 4 stars and not 5 is that Remis chose to include what appears to be just a photocopied set of instructions and the photographs are so poor that they are completely unhelpful. I recommend that you do what I did and take photos of the old installation before removing it - that helped. Just follow the written instructions, which are clear, plus your own photos and you should have no trouble. The whole job only took me about 1 1/2 hours and that was the first time I had ever done this job. The rooflight now works perfectly again.
Leisureshopdirect despatched the kit very quickly indeed and it was received and fitted on the vehicle the day after I ordered it - first class service!

Ordered my Remis spares from an excellent spares catalogue at Leisure Shop Direct and they arrived well ahead of schedule. I fitted the parts with relative ease. I am so pleased with the products and the service from Leisure Shop Direct and will be using them again for my motorhome spares.

We found the part on the website and it was ordered. 3 days later it arrived. Very comprihensive instructions. Fitted and repaired to as new condition.
A Great Replacement

I've just spent a couple of hours replacing the original lifting mechanism on my motorhome with this. It went in relatively easily, following the instructions given. It is an improvement on the original, with far more cable securing points, so I expect the cables not to deform as they had done.
