I've only ever seen a handful of aftermarket sunroofs that function perfectly. Most of the ones I've seen end up deteriorating quite quickly: water leaks which eventually led to rust is pretty common place.

Gotta a pic? I have never seen an S197 with a sunroof before, just the glass roof at the dealerships.

I saw a 2010-11 in downtown LA with a sun roof installed. It looked ok. It was the kind where the glass retracts over the painted roof and not hidden underneath. I understand the desire but I wouldn't call it a solution.

yeah, like the angle of it stuck between speed-bumps in a Walmart parking lot.

Sorry, just had to...
