There seem to be many that tend to get sticky (like mine). You may need to press the button with one hand and then gently press up on the back of the sunroof with the other. Some grease lubed the rails well and now it works fine.

 

yea mine gets stuck too, ill try what you did and see if it works

 

My 94 has a glass moon roof as well.. I thought mine was a Tour?..

 

Based on this guys post (2nd from the top)
Only the Touring models had glass moon roofs.

theres always a few anomalies due to previous owners changing stuff around or cars coming with stuff they shouldn't. as a general rule yes, the glass only came on the touring 94

for 95 im not sure about moonroof details since touring was not offered. are tehre 95's with moonroofs? i dont know

 

thats correct. only the Touring submodel came with glass. the PEP came with all the Touring options but had a body colored metal sunroof instead. hence the reason you wont find a 95 with glass since the touring was discontinued mid 94. unless someone swapped it out like I did (its not hard just long and boring)


yes, 95 PEP models did come with SUNroofs,(moonroofs slide under the roofline, not over it) but they were body colored metal, as all PEPs were.


you had 2 94 Tourings if they had glass, PEP did not come with glass.

then it was a PEP, not a touring.

 

if you really want one added to your car. go to mazda buy the new sunroof buy the new interior if needed. (some cars have a slightly lower roof inside do to sunroof not sure if this effects fds)

then find a really good shop to cut your top and install the sunroof. and probably a good shop to paint match where things got dmged.

hell you see fds in japan that are full on convertables now. its about about the shop and the money

 

So the sunroof pops up, but does it go back as well? I haven't tried yet. What's in the engine bay is more important!

 

yes you hold the switch down and itll pop up, then release it and hold it down again and itll slide back.

 

love my glass sunroof

cruising at night with it open is the jam

 

Ah, figured it out. I can't say I foresee using it much, but we'll see how hot my car gets if I have to park it outside in the summer.

 

love my glass sunroof

 

94 chaste white touring...

 

Here are three photos showing the glass sunroof in a BB touring.

This first shot shows that the sunroof all but disappears on a black car because of reflection from the tinted surface.


This shot shows how the sunroof keep the double bubble line of the roof. Look closely. Please ignore the ice, salt, and snow.


Finally, this shows the sunroof from the inside. It was a very, very bright winters day. The sunroof is actually closed in this shot. outside temps were in the teens.

 

Ugh, what're you doing driving your poor FD around in salt and snow when you live in Tacoma? :P

 

LOL, you're wearing a T-shirt in the winter!

 

Bought the car near Kansas City just before Christmas and drove it home. Went south to I-40 to avoid weather, but got caught in a snowstorm out of Albuquerque. I try very hard to avoid snow in this car.

 

Actually, that is my 17 year old son. He wears a t-shirt and basketball shorts year round. I'm the old fart in the first picture with long pants, turtle neck, and a jacket.

 

Have you ever turned the heater on in your FD? it gets quite toasty! short sleeves are a must haha.

 

ya i leave mine on heat defrost vents setting 1 or 2 pretty much year round and just roll down windows to compensate

btw i have a 94 touring black on tan and yep i have a glass sunroof and i love it i wouldnt have it any other way

 

i just bought my glass sunroof and i dont seem to have tht piece tht wraps around between the glass and the headliner any clue where i can get it?do u think mazda still carries it?

 

my 94 touring has one

 

^pics or its not real

 

Here is mine. I think the guy before me cut the roof and added it.

 

I actually test drove a 94 with a glass sunroof. It was ok but I wasn't really a fan of it. I like the interior darkness and stealth look of a metal one. My current 94 is metal and I love it.
