so if i wanted a sunroof in a fasty...how would i go about getting one? anyone? sell me a sunroof?

If you carn`t find a car then you can try to get a clip and weld it in, but its not a cheap job if you have to pay someone to do it.
There was on in the forsales a few months back.

I haven't seen any late model ones with a sunroof...
They have all been pre 1970 models...
I doubt if there are any in a useable condition in Australia and the rust eats cars in parts of North America & most of Europe...
I'm not sure whether You could get one from a Beetle... the roof of a Beetle is very curved....
Although You could aways fit a glass sunroof...
I think You can still buy those new....

Try an American site or even Type 3 Detectives if you have deep pockets

Whatever you do Karina, do it properly. Don't get one of those glass pop ups, as I put one in my Notch in the 80's and it leaked.

i ragtop would be sweet, my sister has one so i dont understand why i cant have one either
my pockets arent deep, they are very very shallow...i dont know if they should even be called pockets
yeh if anything got done it would have to be done properly...ill keep my eye out for anything interesting :D

Am still debating about whether or not to fit it to the square.
