New sunroof!!!

Just got my new sunroof put in and no i didnt originally have te sunroof installed, the guy before me had it put in. Sadly i have to live with it. It looks pretty good! Much nicer than the one i had in it before. I'm still waiting to see how it blocks out the sun. If it doesnt do a good job im going to fab a sunroof visor type deal for it. The only thing i wasn't happy about is the sealant they used came out of the sunroof a bit. I was a little dissapointed by that. And also im not sure if they did this or i just didnt notice but theres a screw in the top plastic that holds the headliner on, by the right pasenger window. Not sure if it was them or not but i didnt like that. But if anyone is in the market for a new sunroof go to sunroofdoctor.com. They did a awesome job in everything. I got the order 4 days later after i bought it. I recommend them. Here's some pics

Re: New sunroof!!!

yeah sunroofs are just so out of place in these cars, my 89 had one which is why I got rid of it, I had at least 10 people come to look at it and said they would have bought it but they didnt like the sunroof... ugh

you know actually the sunroof i got for my car is made by sfc and it actually looks like its supposed to be there. its pretty flush with the body and on the inside the hinges are black and grey so it matches the interior of my car. It worked out quite nicely in my favor.
