A removable roof panel arrangement for motor vehicles and the method of installing such panels in which access openings to be covered by the panels are formed at opposite sides of the center of the vehicle body by completely cutting away a transverse section of the roof of the vehicle body and subsequently installing a unitary frame member which is attached to forward and rearward portions of the original vehicle roof. The construction retains the strength of the original body and the frame members form drainage troughs and support sealing members for engaging the removable panels to maintain the panels in weather tight relationship to the roof of the vehicle.
