Giannis Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 You 're the best.... I found a sunroof at eBay but from the pics that you sent me I notice that the panel also is different so I need a complete roof panel with sunroof that includes switch and head liner In my country starlets don't have sunroof so it's impossible to find a breaking car with sunroof I found also some sunroof starlets in UK for spares but the only way to contact is telephone....i would appreciate if someone here can send a mail of a breaker yard to contact Regards Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SKINY Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 You can buy universal fit sunroofs from Ebay etc, havnt fitted one in must be over 20 years and they where a bit crap getting them too seal back then Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Giannis Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 I know but the quality of aftermarket is far away from oems....also cutting panels aren't the best you can do with your car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
