#33359, "Sunroof installation"


          

Has anyone ever added an aftermarket sunroof to their DSM? Im looking into it and am trying to see what others have done. Any recommended brands or know of anyplace to get good deals on the parts?

Thanks

depends on where you go. I used to install sunroofs for a detail shop and I think they went for 350 installed for a power roof, and 200 something for a pop-up. I haven't seen any aftermarket ones lately but the ones I installed were crap. The biggest problem is car roofs these days are all curved. So unless you get one made specifically for your kind of car then there is a good chance you will have problems with it, if not at first then as it gets older. My advice would be to not go cheap... spend the money to get a good roof and have it installed professionally.
