    Hey guys, not sure if this is in right section if not can a mod please move it.

    I was just curious to know if anyone has had a sunroof installed into their commodore, and a rough idea on pricing?

    Was looking at something like this Welcome to Prestige Sunroofs ...

    Any kind of feedback appreciated, Matty.

    There are 3 things that are certain in life.......death, taxes..........and eventually any sunroof is going to leak or have trapped water fall into the car when you open it.

    street commodores had an installation guide showing how they install sunroofs. The way they stop the leaking water, is have a drainage hole on all 4 corners, so no matter what angle it sits at, the water is always removed.

    Yeah the hollandia 700 is trimmed to factory specs, as they do a lot of the dealer sunroof's as well.
    They have to fully retrim the headliner to do so
