    i know that you will need to remove the 2 support bars attatched to the roof to actually hold the sunroof in position. you also need a new roof lining (obviously) as for removal your best bet would be to just pull of your roof lining and have a look for yaself and see what is under there

    after u get it out, you can sell it to me cause iw ant a sunroof

    just weld a metal sheet and body fill it smooth. and for the inside just use the lining from a non sunroof model.

    i hav seen a pic of someone sealing their sunroof with a give way sign or something! it was funny but effective....

    Hyuga: ha ha! yeah, that'd be funny! i'd cut a hole in my roof to put your sun roof in and give the bit i cut out to you! ha ha!!

    but i seriousley doubt i'll do, it was just an eoi... but if i could do it well so it didn't leak OR rust away, i'll probably do it in 6 months or so
