i want a sunroof

i'd like to get a sunroof for my truck. (99 passport)

ideally i'd like an original factory power sunroof. know of anyone that puts them in?

should i even get one? eventually (when the wife loses interest in the look of the truck) i want to do some heavy off roading, instead of the mud pit style stuff i currently do. would a sunroof be a bad idea then (body flex)?

what do you think? i guess i could just get a reagular pop-up sunroof, instead of power.

Crack a phonebook and I bet you can find a shop in your area that will install a moonroof (power one) for 700-800 bucks.

I wouldn't get a pop-up one ....

No you don't.

They leak (not all, but they do have the potential)

They weaken the roof line

They create an easy breakin entrance

It's up to you, buy why create an opening, and weaken your whole roof line - specially if you'll be into 4-wheeling.

Re: i want a sunroof

thanks. i value that. i wondered about the structural integrity. i know they won't cut and supports of the roof, but i wasn't sure if it would weaken it.

i think i'll sit this idea out...

as far as the break-in point...it would be funny to see someone climb up a 3 + 3 install. (well, once it's finished)

Re: i want a sunroof

Directory, i know how you feel. Mine does not have a sunroof either. My last three cars had them and I really want one. It feels weird without it. I haven't gotten one because after-market sunroofs often leak. There is no substitute for a factory sunroof. It is rather expensive to put a automatic one in too. I am not a fan of the pop-up roofs.
