Are there any members that have installed a sunroof in your Hatch? I have a 97 Hatch and a totalled 00 Si. I want to take the skin off the roof of the Si and Weld it in and shave the top on my 97. pix if you have them Please.

 

remember.... once you cut the hole...you can only make it bigger, not smaller

 

Im not going to cut a hole. I want to pull the skin out of the roof between the roof body lines. Then weld it in and shave it smooth.

 

unless you are harry potter, i think you will have to cut a hole at some point...

 

I have sunroof on my hatch, ya if you are not a weight saving freak, then it is sorta cool for summer times.

I have nothing to say about swapping the roof or cutting hole, but as a precaution, don't shave the roof (if you want to fill up the black strip area). That's for water to drain and when you open your door in a rain, the water on the roof will pour in like crazy, cause it is not trapped inside the channel.

Unless it is a car that never sees rain nor snow.

 

Are you talking about swapping the coupe roof to your hatch?
The coupe roof is bigger so you'd have to cut it in half.
I think it would be cheaper to have an aftermarket one installed.

Don't waste your time with all that work you would have to do...just get an aftermarket sunroof put in or do one yourself. Cutting the roof off of your hatch would not be a good idea...

 

how much do places charge to install one? I really miss a sunroof going from my 99 si to my 97 dx hatch

 

Ok to inform everyone now. I go to the Local College and I take the Hot Rod Custom Shop class. I will be doing the work. All I wanted was Good feedback like everyone has giving me. Thanks alot.

Also I will be shaving the Roof Smooth. NO BODY lines.

Hey, I'm a weight saving freak and I have a sunroof. Of course mine is not an electric one and I either pop it up or take it out in the summer. It actually saved me about 4 pounds or so as well.

Well you said it yourself, not an motorized one. Glass + everything else = dead weight

agreed.. why do we get hatchcraps with 100 horses and others get twice as much..
not to mention other goodies.. such as recaro, momo wheel, power window, power lock..

 

wow. i didnt even know they made a civic jordan, turns out it was a limited production car in europe. they only made 500 in 1999, and thats it. only came in yellow, and had black and yellow leather interior.
