just found this on ebay.

anybody have any info on this

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Rare-...t_12749wt_1167

 

They didn't come with sunroofs

 

Looks to be a real type R, but the sunroof looks aftermarket. oem sunroofs usually don't have the black weather stripping around them.

 

Definitely aftermarket. OEM moonroofs have the weatherstripping around the glass itself, not the opening in the roof. Plus, I didn't see an OEM moonroof switch beneath the drivers air vent where its supposed to be.

Out of curiosity, I wonder if you could have special ordered one new through the dealer with an OEM moonroof...

 

Thats not where my button is....Moonroof was actually a Dealer option on certain ITR's believe it or not. Ill see if I can find the article about it. BUT, I dont see why anyone would take the ITR stickers off the sides and the rear. Could have just done a complete swap and done a vin swap from a wrecked ITR

 

oops ignore me saying thats not where mine is lmao, little drunk right now. hahahahaha, but a moonroof can be a dealer option for ITRs same with ac, most didnt come with either

 

From the paper work I found in my glove box "the lady" that bought my ek new had the dealer install a sunroof. it is pretty much aftermarket, but close to oem style lol.

 

On Apr-26-12 at 21:16:01 PDT, seller added the following information:

I also must add that the sunroof was dealer installed and i have the paperwork for it.

 

ITR's can get a dealer installed sunroof option if they ask about it. And a/c I have seen it myself. Not that anybody has to believe me but it is possible. RARE but possible. Most just don't have the ***** to ask

 

if he has paperwork showing it being one of these few dealer installed sunroofs this could be a fairly rare car

 

the sunroof acts like a roof spoiler
thought the aftermarket sunroof would look at least OEM style where it slids underneath the roof panel.

 

The sunroofs that are OEM do the same thing they go outside of the car. The roof panel is to small on an integra to go under the roof and be able to open 100%.

 

what he said

 

ITR + SUNROOF = RETARED!! i dont care if its rare, oem, optional!

 

I laugh when i read through this thread........

As mentioned, the sunroof may be dealer installed, BUT it is "aftermarket", NOT oem!

Don't call this call this car rare. It is an integra that had a jigsaw taken to the roof with the metal ripped open with an aftermarket power sunroof put in place.

Looking over the rest of the car, honestly, it seems a little rough, as well the car has been repainted

 

Thanks for the correction. didnt really pay close attention for the integra models.

 

Great way to ruin a perfectly good Type R

 

yeah i contacted this guy about the car he does have all the paper work on the sunroof from the dealer but he was a lil shady when i asked what had been painted on the car

 

yeah its been painted.. and i would think the dealer would put in a oem sunroof... looks like someone other then the dealer installed that..

 

The sunroof may be dealer installed, but it's not a genuine option/accessory.

 

Look at the tires. lol They are "touring" Whoever purchased this car should have went for an LS model. I don't think they knew what this car was made for.

 

made me lol. the cell phone holder cracks me up too

 

Not OEM..not ever. Probably bought a Pepboys and installed by the dealer...never was an option..

In Japan, dealers discourage adding sun/moon roofs because they destroy the rigidity and integrity of the chassis

 

I saw this a few weeks ago. I was gonna post the link in the for sale section then relized it was ruined. When it comes to stuff like that, I'd rather people take all the parts off the car and put it in a GSR if they really wanted a sunroof. Sucks too cause its numbers matching supposedly.

 

It may just be the pic, but I don't see a serial number on the armrest badge. Looks like a blank replacement.
