It's an aftermarket moonroof. The US and Canada got shafted when it came to factory moonroofs on our EJs.

I personally don't care, but we got shafted for a lot of options.

To each his own, of course. I hate power windows but I love having a sunroof

 

This is an aftermarket moonroof in a 6th gen ('96-'00) Civic DX hatchback. (This happens to be in a '97 DX hatchback.)



This is an OEM moonroof in a 6th gen ('96-'00) Civic EX coupe. (This happens to be in a '98 EX coupe.)

you probably own an SI.

 

The Si isn't the only one with a moonroof.

 

i wouldnt care for sunroof.... but they shouldve gave us power windows instead of us converting it.... and they shouldve made a "Si" model hatch for us..... that would be sweeeeet!

Well, in the US market at the time the hatchback (as it is seen today too) is mostly seen as a car for peopel who just want to carry a lot. It's seen as being about as cool as station wagons are seen by most Americans.

So the need for a performance model (the EK4) in the US is well, incredibly low.

In the US:

Coupe (2dr) = Sporty
Hatchback (3dr) = Dopey
Sedan (4dr) = Family
Wagon (5dr) = Family/Older Drivers (think "Griswolds")

Not that I believe that, but it's sort of the feeling the general American market has or had towards each body type (of any car - not just Civics).

Think abotu other cars in that body style to try to geta bit better idea. By now many of us might be a bit bias towards the Civic versions. What do you think of when you see an Accent, Focus, Metro or Pinto hatchback?

Sure, you'll always have your guy who sees a Metro and thinks, "You know what I need to do? I need to get that into the 9s." But most peopel will look at him and just say, with a quizzical expression, "Why?"

 

i would love to have a sunroof/moonroof on my hatch. for some reason i like the looks of it.

 

heres my glass sun roof



looking for a moon roof visor now

 

Yea, that's my old 97 Civic hatchback. I bought the sunroof for ~700 installed. I have since sold the car for 4200 back in 2005. Here's an updated link to the Civic Hatchback Sunroof photos.

You can see the WRX in the back. That's what I sold my hatchback for.

 

It`s hard to see in this pic, but i was in the Carribbean last fall and saw hatches with oem sun roofs. They really did get a number of options we didn`t

 

both of my Eks came with a moon roof
my 96 civic and my 99 civic.
but both are Ex.

 

Yes, in the US all '96-'00 Civic EX coupes, Si coupes and EX sedans have moonroofs stock.

The other trims do not.

 

yup

 

I want a sunroof in my hatch. How did yall get yours?

 

lol we didnt get single vtec optional with our ej's we'll we didnt really get anything optional with our cars except for what a/c and p/s from what ive been told

 

In the UK some of the later 1.4 EK's got electrics. Mine came with wind-down windows and no sun-roof but I got the matador red pearl paintjob :D

Problem over here isn't how many toys you get. I could insure the same EK hatch with electrics for the identical price as my own. The problem here in the UK is insurance.
£1650 for my 1.4 Hatch.... now that's shafted

Correct me if Im wrong with my info

 

Mmm.... the Jordan EK... gorgeous bit of kit although the yellow interior is a bit garish. There's one around here, can't remember what number...

All the info is pretty much bang on. But rather random in the middle of a thread about sunroof's....
