Thanks, you've been very helpful. It turns out there is a dealer just one town over from me. I'll give them a call once I've saved the money and get a quote.

I did some measuring just a second ago. The company offers three lengths: 30", 33", and 37". 37" doesn't look like it would fit to me, so it must be a 30" or a 33". I'm not an installer, but it looks like either would comfortably fit. I may cut a piece of carboard to the those dimensions and set it on the car just so I can get an idea.

McBudd,

Next time you're in your car would you try and measure or guess at the size of the hole?

Thanks again!

Oh, one other thing I meant to ask: Mcbudd, did that 1200 include install? Or was that extra?

Yeah but we pay for the vert, 1200 looks small compared to how much extra we pay for a convertible!

I also have the Inalfa sunroof. It is the best, period. The curvature f the roof forces any sunroof to be a little small. It only opens ~3/4 the way, but you won't find one that opens farther. It fits between the roof supports, and does not alter the structural integrity.

Big advice..... Get a GOOD INSTALLER. Find out if the dealer regularly installs sunroofs. If they don't, you need to find someone who does. It is possible to screw it up, stretch the headliner wrong, etc. Ask around for references and use someone who knows what they are doing.

I do love mine. I would post pics, but McBudd did a great job already.

Any particular reason why it only opens 3/4 of the way or is that just the design of it?

I was running the idea of a sunroof by some guys at work and they got me thinking.

Does the sunroof slide into the space between the liner and the top? Or does the liner need to be dropped down a bit, decreasing the head room just a little?
