I`m totally new to Matra. I can guarantee that I`ll need help to the maybe most easy things, and I will make my questions here.
On my Murena there is a aftermarket sunroof, I understand this was often put on the cars when they was new. The Idea is not bad, the function I am shure is nice in a hot summerday.
BUT, I would like a more nice sunroof. The Hollandia 300 series, Have someone tryed this on the Murena to replace the first one?

I can see your point.... These non original roofs are not the most beautiful on a classic car like these. I was thinking maybe the Hollandia 300 series would make the design and hole in the roof a little bit more nice to look at.
Another thing I am thinking of... I am going to Danmark soon to pick up the Murena. I do not know the frezzing point of the coolant, and therefor I want to drain it off before return to Norway (and here it is cold that time a year). I must do this job on the floor, and I have just short time to pick up the car befor I must return to the ferry in Hirtshals.
Can anyone tell me if this is easy and possible. What/where waterlines and places is the best to open and drain radiator, engine and system?. Tools needed?.
regards FredR
Draining the coolant should be easy. Remove the filler cap on the expansion tank and loosen the drain plug on the bottom of the radiator. Considering the difficulty in removing all air from a Murena cooling system, you should consider just buying a coolant freeze gauge. T-Hansen, or Biltema, would have it. Drain enough coolant into a glass and let the gauge float to see what the freezing point is. If it is not ok for the temperatures you expect at the North Pole, or how far north you plan to go ![Wink](http://www.matrasport.dk/forum/Smileys/default/wink.gif) , then add antifreeze, drain and measure again. Repeat until you reach the freezing point you want. Naturally the engine must be run, and be warm enough to open the thermostat after each time in order to mix in the antifreeze. Good luck and make sure your tires are winter rated.

Hi Jon! Well, I can understand you about wheelbearings. There is no sound or any other bug with them. But on all my old cars I have changed them, beacause breakdown on these is worst case senario on the road, then I have a big problem. So therefor, new bearings ![Smiley](http://www.matrasport.dk/forum/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) and brakes. Have found this numbers QWB 231 or BRT 384 but what is the SKF number? Are these the numbers on the bearing package? and all 4 bearings are the same? Cheers ![Smiley](http://www.matrasport.dk/forum/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
