Aftermarket Sun roof

[Mrk_Mickey]

Yeah I remember that one. I really wanted one in my car but can't justify the costs.

Too sunny in oz for a sunroof LOL

Always used mine in the UK but not here as it's too bright/hot tbh

Big hole that lets in water and rust.

Also too hot to have it open ever.

well if you want to be really cunning.

You could always try and find a body that has a sunroof.

Peel the roof off your and the spare body, then weld back on to your car.

I have seen this being done before. Crazy, but could be another way of doing it.

I remember talking to someone about something like that a long while ago. Apparently it was cheaper to source a working electric sun roof from a <insert model here> (I don't remember what), cut the panel out, then weld it into your car and paint it up to match.

Reality is though I might like one, you guys are right (water and rust aside) they are worth a fair chunk of the value of the car.

Sure you can't think about relative values when modding, but the Mk4 isn't that much more than the sale price of my current car and every time I spend $$ on mine I could be saving those towards a nice R32

Had one in my old vr, leaked all the time and made the car smell like its got water in it the hole time & it rust alot round the edges..
it worked properly and everything but it was never tight enough to stop the water goin in.. they use a rubber edge that sits on the outiside of the sunroof when they fit it cause it wasnt factory fitted it was after market and when the sun gets to the rubber alot it starts peeling up all the time and your forever getting it re slicon'd! doesnt loook very good.. also they have to change the head lining to fit the motor in and it makes your headlining sag cause they cant attach it to anything!!
