Default Glass roof or Sunroof?


I'm looking at importing an EF7 within the next couple of months and was wondering which weighs more: the glass roof or the sunroof.

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_CRX
they show the wieghts as:
Glass roof (+10 kg/22 lb)
Sun roof (+20 kg/44 lb)

Which I don't fully believe.

Also, which would be more suited to my driving habits, which will include frequent autocrossing and solosprints (time attacks).

Thanks for the input

the glasstop is lighter then the sunroof assembly. Doesnt make much sense but it is. Also the glass is so much nicer looking. For autox and time attacks i guess you would want one with neither so it will be lighter but unless your at the top level i would go with a glasstop.

+ glass = stiffer

I've got plans for making a CF roof (full)

The body stiffness will increase!
