    I'd like to introduce more natural light into my bungalow living room space approx 8M x 8M. Skylights seemed to be the obvious answer rather than knocking down walls. However, the loft space is of a Fink trussed construction which I can't cut or change.
    These large trusses are 70mm x 35mm timber section at 450mm centres and with plenty of length eaves to ridge. I'd seen firms that do long narrow 3g fixed lights for this sort of application. but I'm unsure as to how they'd look from the interior. I'd thought of three in a row on alternate truss spaces with 2 x flat ceiling sections between. It's a pantile roof so flashing detail could get messy. The good news is its N. facing.
    Can anyone spot any flaws in my idea? Has anyone attempted skylights in a trussed roof situation and does anyone know of a decent firm who make the lights.
