The Vanagon sliding roof also called a sunroof is built into the roof
section at the factory before the roof is welded in. It is not in any
way an add-on. A unique version of the roof section was designed and
built with the sliding roof integrated into it. AFAIK, VW used 3
different roof designs in North American models.

Standard, Camper, Sliding roof.

It is not trivial to convert from one to another.
