GLASS ROOF

meandash · 08-16-2009, 12:50 AM

Greetings to All:
I have a 2006 Mustang with a glass roof. I have yet to see another one anywhere. I see online that they will be offered in 2010, does anyone else have one now?

Actually my mother picked one up yesterday. She has the HID's, nav, and the glass roof. I am going Monday to order mine.

My 2009 has it. Purchased new. You can only get the glass roof from the factory for 2009+, yours is aftermarket and probably from here: http://www.classicdesignconcepts.com...duct_list&c=53

what does it look like from the inside looking up? my concern would be what would happen if you somehow rolled the car lol

It looks like a giant sunroof. Structurally its as strong (the dealer said its stronger) than the regular roof. If you have ever been in a targa top corvette, its very similiar but probably twice as long.

I would be more worried about a convertible than the glassback.

Thanks for the info. I still have yet to find one purchased the same year as mine. I have the 2006 version and I love it. But.....one of the reasons I loved it so was besides it being a Mustang was the fact that it was a little different and sexier than most Mustangs, now with everyone getting one I may have to change up to something else. If this is a special car since it is a 2006, should I keep it??

Your car is very rare because it is a 2006 with the glass roof. The only year in our body style (2005-2009) that you could get it from the factory is 2009, so it should always be pretty rare.

I haven't seen a glass roof in person from the inside. Is there a built in sun shield or something so that you can cover it up on hot days? How is the head room compared to standard roof?

yep, there is a sunshade that pulls out (like a sunroof shade). There is probably an extra half inch of headroom over a regular coupe because there isn't a headliner. I rarely pull the sunshade because I park in a garage at home and a parking garage at work. The only times that I have pulled it were when I had a headache and didn't like the extra light coming in and parking outside for a couple hours on a sunny day.
