Aftermarket sunroof???
Was wondering if anyone has bought an aftermarket moonroof and what the prices are and if you guys (and gals) think it's even worth it. Also thinking of getting an alarm which starts the car (remote start) does this damage the cars ignition system or anything??? Thanks

Re: Aftermarket sunroof???
Idiot flamers....anyway
I dont suggest an aftermarket sunroof. I considered it for my Bonneville and it was to risky. As for remote starter, the VATS system or any theft deterent system that if factory designed has to be bypassed, but it is possible. In a nutshell...Sunroof no, remote start yes!

Re: Aftermarket sunroof???
Well, keep in mind that you always get what you pay for. If you want a roof or RS, go to a shop that does a bunch of them or do the word-of-mouth thing to find the shop. I like sunroofs however, it is a real good source for leaks when something is not right.

Re: Aftermarket sunroof???
it all depends of what you want, do you just a sunroof that will only vent open or that fully opens. well to have one vent open is about 250 and open fully could run up to 500. I've already looked into all the prices to get mine done, but I decided to put a 17 in lcd monitor there instead.

Re: Aftermarket sunroof???
I also considered a sunroof, just too many leaks in an aftermarket sunroof.
Can't look as good as OEM, in this car especially, if its not OEM it looks cheap, things just don't look right. |

Aftermarket sunroof
I recently had a power sliding Webasto sunroof installed in my 2001 4x4 Extended Cab Ford Ranger. Very, very happy with the results. Check out the photos I posted. I used an experienced installer, been in business for 30 years. Looked at some of their other installs prior to having my sunroof installed. Overall results look like factory. The complete headliner was replaced and matches the existing sunvisors perfectly. The fit & finish is excellent on everything. The programable controller looks nice. Just by tapping the open or close buttons, the sunroof opens or closes completely. The are two programable buttons, you can set the sunroof to open to any pre-programed position that you desire. The final button labeled with a "C", closes the sunroof completely from any position. The sunshade looks great too. The sunroof automatically closes when the ignition is turned off. There have been a few somewhat heavy rain storms here since the install and there were no leaks. Also, the installer gave a 3 year warranty.

Re: Aftermarket sunroof???
My 97 has the factory sunroof and I really wish it didnt. First off the sunroof takes up 2-3 inches of head room and at 6'4" I need all I can get. Second, I just dont use it. There might be a month is spring and a month in fall that I use it sometimes but it is usually hot, cold or humid. Of course this is just my opinion and you may love your sunroof.
