Re: there is a hole in my roof?

instead of 98+, you should do a 94-97 phantom with this bumper:

wow, brian.... that took some big 'uns right there, looks great!! i always thought that it would be the size need for my 4-door, guess when i'm shaving the roof-rack off it'll have to get cut, how does it stay closed on the inside? it would be awesome for me, but i'm not sure what it would be like in the winter here?

Re: there is a hole in my roof?

What keeps it water proof?

How does the top seal on the tracks, and how does the track seal to the roof?

they send a sealant with it ...you put it on the roof and around the mounting holes than lay the base down ...than put the tracks on ...**they dont have holes in them ... ** ...I think Brian is going to lay sealant from the inside to .. it says in the instructions to do that so in order to not get leaks...

EDIT... the top is sealed shut when you extend it all the way there is no way water is suppose to get through b/c it sits flush with the roof
