ok guys .... heres the deal .... i have a 92 hatch cx .... it used to have some sort of sunroof on it .... i dont know if it was factory, or if it was aftermarket .... it was not power it was manual and one day i didnt latch it on correctly and woof .... the glass went flying at about 80mph .....
anyway this was about a year ago and in the mean time i just put a piece of plexiglass up there to keep the water out ....

so heres the deal .. i want to install a eg power sunroof ..... but it looks like it is a bigger size than the old one that was in there .....

but anyway here are my questions for you ( actualy since my dad is doing the work its his questions -- he told me i had to do the research lol )

1. will there need to be any reinforcing of the roof??? or are all the non sunroof roofs designed in the same manner as the ones with sunroof??

and 2.... he mentioned that alot of times most cars with sunroofs have water chanels that run through the roof to the back of the car to drain water, and help from leakage..

he has installed a few before and wanted to know if the lines are in stock hondas, and if he is going to have to install them

so anyone know anything bout putting these sunroofs in???

thanks guys

Joe

 

only si had a sun roof , is yous an SI ?

and yes, the SI has reenforcement, that why they weigh 400 pounds more

 

mine is not an si and i heard elsewhere that when putting in a sunroof in a non sunroof eg that roof reinforcment was not needed...... is that false .....

like i said, i guess that thast the manual sunroof i have in my car was aftermarket then................
