How rare are these?or are they common? How much are they worth paying for? I am not talking about plexiglass, i am talking about the OEM ones.

 

there is no OEM moonroof... there was a few companies that made them for the FC, pacific glass as i recall is one of the better suppliers.

the glass usually runs $200-400 used. there is no more companies that make the glass as far as i know.

 

Actually they were Dealer Options. There were 2 main vendors:

Pacific Glass: Company is defunct

Saratoga T-Tops: Company is still in business, now headquartered out of NC. When thay moved from NY all the molds were lost/destroyed. Please do not bug them trying to get them to retool and remake them. They want a 10,000 unit min. order.

 

ROFL!! Tell them you want to place an order for 10,000 and see if they will make them before you pay, then just magically disapear and then they will have 10,000 glass moonroofs they will have to get rid of for a low low cost!

 

yeah, cause most companies fly by the seat of their pants....

 

I have the dealer option glass sunroof in my car. Here's a pic:

I bought an 87TII off some guy in Atlanta about 10 years ago. Since then, this sunroof has been in every FC I've owned

 

I really wonder what the price estimate would be.
I think you could sell 10,000 glass sunroofs
of good quality to fc owners for 200.00 each.
Does anybody have the phone # or company info?

 

For 10,000 FC owners? No way will that ever happen in this present day.

 

You never know. The way those things rust
and the amount of fc owners there are.
It would have to be something you would
have to sit on to make a profit. But is a
possibility. I am sure there are twice as many
fc owners out there.

 

This would have to be one person or
a very small group doing this. Not a
group buy deal. That is hard with just
100 people.

 

you have $2 million in your bank account? i don't.

 

Give it up. You new FC owners are just a bunch of cheep *** kids who cant even affors to maintain your cars in factory tune.

 

Amen to that...

 

i know the feeling. but my car is getting close to stock

 

It will never happen ever!

 

yea im 22 and i can't AFFORS to put gas in mine most of the time , but really just b/c i dont make 200k a year dosent mean i have shitty car that i cant take care of and who the hell wants to keep there car in "factory tune"

 

I agree!
200 dolllars? pfft!

 

I'm 110% sure he means running properly.

And most of the new members here are ******* deadbeats. Ask anyone that has tried to make products for them(hIGGI, REted, Bukwild?, Mazdaspeed7, etc.) It happens time and again you get 40million questions about when it will come out and "i'm really intersted" then when you post the price and offer the stuff up "hey sorry i don't have cash anymore", "yeah thats too much if you lowere it to like 25 bucks i'd do it otherwiese no...", "can we get a discount?", "I don't like the way you did it sorry....." etc!

 

Plexiglass moonroofs were manufactured last year by a forum member specifically for the FC. And guess what there weren't 10,000 people interested and they were for a damn good price. Pipe dreams, Pipe dreams, that's all the owners of the FC have.

i may have a glass sunroof for sale actually... the factory option one... $300shipped

 

Yeah but Luis isn't making anymore. I wanted to buy another one.

 

i got you man i guess people talk **** but dont have funds to back it up. Im sure its just highschool kids that got a couple grand from there parents to buy a 7. Im a noob to the site but bought my first 7 three years ago. i know **** like that is a waste of time and money anyway i understand your frustration now just dident know the story behind it

 

Yeah its not big just a fellow fabricator's unreleased frustration!

EDIT: 12kth post! woot

 

plexiglass is quite less than ideal for a moonroof, it will scratch and fade quickly unless polished weekly.

and yes, most of the forum members are deadbeats but i do see a lot of lumping going around lately.

 

Well I'm 27 and I spend too much on my cars
as it is, but your right MOST fc owners will
not spend the money. Pipe dreams is right
