Okay, I'm in the process of buying a sunroof that came on a Celi. Mine is a coupe and currently doesn't have a sunroof. I wanted to know how hard it'd be to install it. It looks very easy to do. Just cut the roof the right size and fit that thing in there and bolt it up to the ceiling inside. ill have the sunroof, the motor, the switch. basically everything ill need as far as materials. anyone have any suggestions as to how to start installing this? like, what tools to use to cut the metal on the roof? etc... thanks. has anyone done this before?

I think probley having the whole chunk of roof and welding it in there would work better then try'n to cut a whole to the right size, but it could be done Id probley try and use a coupe's roof too. remember drains and all electrical connections too.

If I were you, I'd have it profesionally installed. Otherwise, you get water, and you're stuck with it, instead of having a leak-free guarentee.

yeah, i would get it professionally done, esp since you have all the parts you'd only pay for labor. Belive me i know what its like to have a leaky sunroof, it SUCKS.
