Getting Rid Of Sunroof

[PWND]

Hi,

Have a r32 fitted with a sunroof. Being 6 foot 3, my head touches the roof every now and again, so I was wondering if anybody has ever just taken their sunroof out to get some more head space?

What I was planning to do was to take the roof lining out, motor and everything, and then just permanently fix the sunroof on there, and seal it up with sealant and some glue. And then just to get a non sunroof r32's roof lining, and put that in instead, and hopefully get me those extra few centimetres.

Should have just bought a car with no sunroof, i know, but this one came along at the right price, so now am stuck with it, especially since I have spent a bit of money on fitting a rb25 into it.

So, has anybdoy ever done this, or do you guys think this is possible?

Cheers

I probably could, but I am planning on putting in a roll cage in a couple of months, and getting rid of the sunroof would enable me to get an off the shelf item, as oposed to probably having to custom make one, or find a sunroof fitted model roll cage, which I haven't seen advertised yet.

the sunroof at the moment doesn't open anyway, just goes up and down, so seeing as I have to get in there anyway, figured I might just get rid of it while I am there.

yeh im thinking of doing this too..

i don't see why this wouldn't work, i need to get around to taking the roof lining off and having a better look.....

it is possible to change your whole roof but very very expensive.

let me know how you go.....
