i'd have to agree w/ your wife.. :<)    the sunroof vanagon has a whole
different roof section, its actually a double roof..unlike regular hardtop
vanagons with a single roof, the sunroof vanagons have 2 layers of
sheetmetal, inwhich the sunroof tracks/cables/etc reside, and into which the
roof slides back in..    plus all the drains for the roof that go down into
the B and D pillars..    not worth the hassle IMO (tho was going to do this
w/ my ex-'67 deluxe microbus, its a ragtop sunroof tho)

as far as the SA Quad headlight grille etc, many listvendors are importing
them.  ive got the setup on my 84 sunroof van. all you need is a set of
'80-'84 headlight buckets to swap your square headlights out with (i have a
set of round headlight buckets if you need them)
