I've got a Britax cloth sunroof which does the job quite nicely and doesn't leak, but I'd prefer to have a modern electric unit. The trouble is,
the hole I've already got is bigger than most sunroofs...

I looked into this a few years ago, with my splitty that was a pop top, the previous owner converted it back into a microbus, and had a canvas ragtop
made.
I wanted to put on a mechanical roof to make it a bit more secure.
The problem I encountered was thas most aftermarket sunroof manufacturers these days only make them for sedans, and are consequently fairly small.
I was looking for a GBMF about 1.2m wide and 1.7m long.
No-one had one big enough
I'd like to put one im my Bay Window, so would also like to hear any ideas.
Most people seem normal, till you get to know them.
