hey Mike -
The new and improved sunroof was in there courtesy of the P.O. It looks like
something you could find in the JC Whitney catalog though. I've been really
happy with it - no leaks, looks decent, easy up and down/in and out. The
structural integrity of the top does not seem to be compromised at all. You
are only talking a couple more inches on both sides that had to be removed,
so it would be pretty minor surgery to install.
Good luck!!

Scott
