Re: SunRoofs AftrMrkt

dont remembers seeing anybody here do it

my opinion is to not do it, thats just me. Good thing about hard tops is that they do no leak...

Re: SunRoofs AftrMrkt

yea thats what im saying, the possibilities of it leaking arent just based off of the sunroofs, its on how well the person does installing them. i plan on getting mine profesionally done and im sure they usually have insurance incase it does leak they fix and pay damage.

Re: SunRoofs AftrMrkt

yes they should have ins to cover them. i would suggest a water test within 2 days so that if it does leak you can take it back rite away. goodluck and show some pics when you get it done

In my '73 Datsun pickup three decades ago, yes. In a Camaro, no.
