That is a stock sunroof. It is factory, you can tell by how the sunroof set inside a lip, the roof is formed to fit the glass.

What do you mean, stock is factory. That one on your car isn't a dealer add on.

I don't think the sunroof in that other post is factory! Factory sunroofs did not have hinges, they had little metal tabs that were set into plastic clips recessed into the housing in the roof. That may be a dealer installed roof, but not factory installed

The only thing that looks funny to me is the headliner, that isn't factory. The only way to put the style sunroof in would be to cut and weld, then paint since it sets flush with the roof, the metal is recessed to accept the glass.

look at the pics ofponyboy302. his looks like a factory installed. the headliner is very thick in that area. the other one like i have and patrickfxckhas is very thin. theres no support to it. i can push by the side of mine and cave the roof if i wanted to. the other style is much nicer.

diffinately not the stock sunroof. the one on my 90 looks diff. the front is held by tabs that slide into the roof, not hinges. the rear hinge looks different on this one as well. another give-away is the dome light. it has the stock domelight of a hardtop. the TRUE domelight on a sunroof car is the same life we all have in our hatch, it is much smaller. and right in between the sun visors.
