most sunroof's are installed at the dealer which means that it can be done to any model relatively easy.

it'll be between 200-400 bucks to get it done. try a dealer see what they say. after that try alarm/stereo shops a lot of them do that too. but be carefull because a bad install will totally suck ***. it'll leak and ruin your interior. and could potentially be permanent damage.

just a side note. your also adding weight to the top of your car which is just about the worst place to do it. just my 2cents

Honda does not install any sunroofs at the dealerships. All models that have sunroofs are delivered from the factory that way. You can go to just about any dealership and pay them to have one installed BUT you'd be better off trying to find out who they go through for aftermarket stuff. I do not know of a single Honda dealership that installs their own aftermarket equipment (stereos, sunroofs, etc.). I know that there's some that do performance equipment but I've never heard of them doing sunroofs. The prices that you've seen seem about right for what we paid when I worked at the dealership. Also, know that the majority of aftermarket sunroofs WILL LEAK. It's just a question of time (actually, everyone I've talked to that installs them say that they will all leak but....). You won't be adding a significant amount of weight to the roof, they are much different than factory sunroofs and since they cannot be installed in the same way, they are not as high quality, not as thick, and not as heavy. All electric sunroofs will operate like those on the 5th gen. civics (slide up over the roof instead inside it). Also, one more thing to note is that your resale value (especially trade-in) will be hurt by installing one unless you sell the car to someone who just doesn't know that they didn't come with one. If you trade it in at a Honda dealership, you'll take a bigger hit because the car cannot be sold as a Factory Certified vehicle with an aftermarket sunroof. Anyway, I hope the above info helps you.

you'll never get it to be as good or perfect as a factory equipped car...

A girl at my work had one installed through honda on her 98 civic HB..Its the manual pop up one. She said it was all good when it was put in but now it leaks every time it rains and regrets it 100%
