I've got 3 moonroofs for 3 cars, and I think I can locate more, so If someone's desperate I could part with one for $150 plus shipping. But I'm not desperate to sell.

Are these actually glass? I've only seen the sheet metal sun roofs.

Yes Rich, these are GLASS sunroofs. I'm surprised you haven't seen or even heard of them before.

I have both a glass top, and an aftermarket plexi-glass top for my car., plus the metal sunroof...
I might be selling the glass or plexi roof in about a month..

I am looking at a car with a sunroof. It only comes with the metal roof though. The guy insists that that all that came with it. So I would like a glass or plexi-glass sunroof if possible, when I get the car. All depends on costs. I first got to fix the gas tank WITHOUT buying a new one for $900 freeking bucks american. Thats about 1500 for us canadians up hear plus the humungus shipping bill.

I'll check My Sources this week, and if I come up with a spare I'll make it available. I don't know exactly why I need 3 roofs for 3 cars, since I usually only drive one at a time. An abundance of riches, for a change.

smnc: Keep the plexi roof and sell the other one. The plexi sunroof is probably lighter.

Just a suggestion to you in the name of weight savings.

Plexi doesn't age well. Even UV protected eventually looses it's clarity. Not to mention EVERYTHING that touches it scratches it. Glass endures. Well as long as it doesn't fly out on the highway because someone didn't lock it in all the way it does. No. Wasn't me. Just saw it happen in front of me one day. Looked really cool from my perspective. Didn't know glass would fly up so high before sailing into the black top.

The plexi is a lighter, and I have it now.
The glass comes on a car I get in 2 weeks.
So I'm not sure what looks better.
