As far as I can see, you will need an electric roof mechanism, and the wiring loom. The job should be farily easy, although a mounting bracket for the pump would be required to be put it in. The only real problem would be trying to find the mechanism. They are fairly rare, and can go for quite a bit of money.
I don't own this anymore - I just can't be arsed to change the picture

you need the pump and the lifters complete from another mk1 cab. then some welding is required. we looked into doing that mod to vix's cab, but in the end it was loads of work.
