i want to put a sunroof in my 79 wagon but i can"t find a small enough one.every place i checked says the biggest i could go is 22 inches across and nobody has anything that small. does anybody have any suggestions? thank you dave
Check out JC Whitney..
Hey Dave, I've had the headliners out of a couple car, never a wagon, but measuring from side to side and knowing where the supports are I find 22" to be a little short... I would "guess" you could go to a 26"-28" but if you are considering front to back.... that could be where the 22" comes into play...
I have seen a couple cars w/sunroofs in pictures only and do however suspect that they are closer to the 22" mark from factory.
anyone have a sunroof installed in their car? measurements and pictures would help.
I believe if you look at my car it's has one, I'll check measurments and i'll post them tomorrow ! ( 79 Bobcat htbk. ) I got mine installed at Tidy Car about 15 yrs ago.
My 79 HB parts car has a factory popup one. I will see if I can remember to take some pictures and measurements of that one as well.
My 77 Bobcat HB has a factory sunroof. While I've had no luck posting pictures, I can easily get you measurements. What exactly do you require?
i guess i am looking for the width.it seems like 30" is the norm,but if i can find somebody who has a smaller one on their car then i know there are some out there and i will have to dig deeper to find one. thanx to everybody for their help dave
There are almost certainly smaller sunroofs out there. I put dual sunroofs in my old Cruising Wagon years ago. If such a thing still exists, look into a custom van shop, or even an RV supply story, because they usually sell things of that nature anyway. Not to mention the good people of Ziebart. I'll get the measurements on my sunroof for you tonight and post them later on this evening. Gotta get to work!
Sun roof measures 15" x 30" and it's 8" from the center of the windshield.Hope this helps. ;D
THANX TO EVERYBODY for your help! i am getting my sunroof put in on wed.what happen was i first went to zibert and was told it was to small to put one in,that it only could have 22 in. accross.so after checking around and reading all my feedback here i decided to try another ziebert here in town. they said no problem,i brought it there to be sure and yep they are going to do it wed. so again thanx dave
Excellent Dave! getting ready for August?
