Default CRX sunroof replacement in an SI...not a plug.

I'm looking for places to buy a new aftermarket sunroof....all I've been able to find are 13or so by 30 or so....the hole in my roof is around 36x19(about)....It's a 88 SI if that helps.

Try a dealership...

There's also fibreglass and carbon ones floating about.
I have a carbon fibre one. Needed a ton of adjusting before it sat nice and flush. It's still not perfect.

Some guy sells these on eBay. I thought about replacing my sunroof but I like the option of closing and opening it.

Default seti?

Seti any links? pics? prices? never seen you post this on CP.

Knowledge is that one made of lexan or acrlic? I have heard those are a pain to seal and scratch very easily. Also do you know the seller I have looked a couple times but never have seen these.

I'll snap some more pictures tomorrow.
Only one I have now:



It's real carbon, single layer, flimsy as hell, pain in the *** to fit nice. But I like it.

You can do it yourself for less. I thought about it but a sunroof really "opens up the car".
