Soren:

Heh, glad you like it. The “windsheid” was actually very simple, it’s just a clip , angled on a plate-with-handle .

Then the 1x4 tile was added on top, and since it is only attached by 1 stud, I could swivel it a bit inwards, since the roof is 8 studs wide but the body is 10 wide.

I abandoned the notion of using the window pillars to hold up the roof. Instead, the roof is attached in the center of the cabin, via the interior wall that cabs have behind the front seats.
