Sunroof/Moonroof?
What's the difference? Or are they the same thing? I'm talking foxbodys here, my mom's '83 had a moonroof, and my uncle's '91 had a sunroof. Just wondering...

I think the difference is, one is made of metal & the other is made of glass

as a general rule Sunroof's are metal and Moonroofs are glass. That being said I have never seen ford refer to them as "sunroofs"

I beg to differ; My 89 GT has a Sun Roof and the only metal is a thin ring around all the glass.
Ford and the Ford Shop Manual both say my 89 GT has a Sun Roof.
This is from the 89 Ford Shop Manual

^+1, moonroofs either do not move or only pop up, where a sunroof will go all the way back. 94 Preludes had moonroofs for reference.

Someone needs to tell Ford that they've made a mistake then
