Hi all, I've been looking for an FC without the factory sunroof for a while now, and I cant seem to find any. I know they are out there, but I'm starting to think it might be quicker to buy a nice sunroom equipped car, and just take the sunroof out. Has anybody done this?? If so please let me know how you did it. Thanks in advance.

 

There was a post just the other day about this. The guy showed his before and after pics.

Do a search.

 

A sunroom equipped car would be really nice. There is a topic about someone welding the panel up and the finshing the body work.

DOH!


He beat me to it

 

Whats wrong with sunroofs? is there that much of a weight difference with and without one? I personally like them I think they cool cool hanging off the car when its open.

 

Thanks for the replies, I must have missed that one. Sunroofs, aside from weighing a lot, take up precious head room, and because I want a weekend race project I'd prefer the extra room for a helmet.

 

heh that is the clean expensive way...

if you want to do it the cheapest way possible do it like this!! and you are gonna save weight because this is soooooo much light than the other guys!!

 

It probably is a little lighter and alot cheaper(if you don't the equip). I already had the equipment except for a welding blanket to protect the interior. I did it to mine for extra helmet room and the car needed painted anyways.
