Lightbulb Searching for a Glass Sunroof/Moonroof

Hey Guys,

Thanks to GlazedHam42 (Jamie) I got a replacement clutch disc and pressure plate, which saved me some money for this year. With the extra cashola I'm really lookin' to get a Smoked Glass moonroof. If anyone has one that they might be willing to part with, I'd love to get my hands on it.

What *is* the difference between a sunroof and a moonroof anyway?

Jon

sunroof - A roof on a motor vehicle, having a panel that can be slid back or raised.

moonroof - a permanent window on the roof of a vehicle

In other words, the solid, raisable, removable roofpanels on our cars are sunroofs. The glass ones are also sunroofs, though they fill the function of moonroof when closed.
