What do you mean your sunroof came off? Was it a power sunroof?

Well, I am sorry to hear about your unfortunate experience...But I don't think the sunroofs are the same. I could almost bet if you go to your local junkyard you might find one. Make sure its put on right this time!

Yeah I know a little bit about the JDM Civic. I believe they called it The Honda Civic VTi. What stock motor did you have?

Yeah, someone probably did a few parts from the VTi on to the Civic EX. The basic JDM Tail lights would explain one of those changes. They look very similar to the Honda Civic Si 99-00 Models.

i was told by a buddy that works at my local performance shop that the car is jdm. he looked in the door jam at the sticker and it said something about it. he drives a 95 hb with b18block b20 head boosted.

man that doesn't sound like you have a factory sun roof. The glass with the frame are held in with 3 bolts per side and the motor and frame assy is bolted inside the car its almost the entire size of the roof. I don't think it is poss for the tracks to brake. You better make sure what you have before buying a new glass panel. Photos would be nice it might help us figure out what you have.

Edit: no the glass from the 96-00 will not fit they are diff

Okay But as far as I know The only way to get the glass is with it already atatched to its mounting frame. Here is a link to the exploded veiw of the sun roof
