Sunroof Tech......Gimme your thoughts
 
I am going to get a sunroof next week and was wondering if you guys had any info on which brand or size for the third gen. The guy quoted me $350 for a 20 x 32 Pop Up (I want it big http://web.camaross.com/bb/biggrin.gif ). Is this a fair price??? Should I go with the electric spoiler type??? I am not to keen on the spoiler type, but if anyone has any info or prices on them, I will listen. Any and all info. is greatly appreciated.

ARGH!! Dont get a sunroof, you'll be cutting the "T" out of the roof, which is the main support!! ARGH

Is this a fact???? I have seen sunroofs in the third gens before, but they were small and looked like garbage. I am leaning hard to the big one 20 x 32....Almost like a targa top!!!

You have a brace running though the middle of your roof, where the t-tops T. Converts dont have them, but they have extra subframe braces to make them rigid. If you want an open roof you'll have to get t's cut in

WHEW!!!!! I have done a ton of research and I feel like I am in the same boat when I was pondering nitrous. Many of you say do not do it, but some say they have and it has not hurt a thing. If I put SFC (sub frame connectors) on the bird, it should be enough to stop any HARD flexing. I know now cutting into the Support T is bad...I just do not want the goofy looking two sunroof setup where actual T-Tops go. Thank you all for your help and please keep giving me some info. I am ready to do this, but would like a few more opinions (hopefully encouraging http://web.camaross.com/bb/biggrin.gif )
