Default CRX sunroof swap with 3rd gen prelude

I've heard from a few different people, with no real info to back it up, that a 3rd gen prelude glass sunroof can be used to replace the rusty crx sunroof panel.

Can anyone confirm this?

i stuffed a EG sunroof into my CRX years ago, i dont know about the 3rd gen prelude, i think they are bigger then the EG's so it would be even worse then what i went through...

What I can tell you for certain is: I had a 3rd gen prelude OEM Honda sunroof deflector on my CRX and the mesurments looked to be the same, as in the gap between the sunroof and the edges of the deflector. As far as the length of the sunroof being the same, I'm not sure.

I know the prelude sunroof went under the roof when open and the crx goes over, but i'm not sure about dimensions.

i figure putting a metal panel back in will always rust, so i'm looking for a way to beat the rustys...glass, fiberglass or cf.
