My GF just got a new honda jazz and we had it fitted with a sunroof. The dealer told us that this wasn't a stardard option from honda. He told us that the sunroof that was going to be put in was going to be done by the company who puts it on BMW (forgot the name of the company). I have to say it was done very nicely. Full electronic control. Makes me want to get one for my R33 but i would rather do the performance first.

It cost us an extra $2500 for the sunroof.

I think the ones that dealers get for cars that don't come with them factory-optioned are done by Hollandia. I'm pretty sure their standards are high, so you shouldn't have too many issues. As mentioned, it will probably be big dollars though.

I'm pretty sure that's who does the new car ones, but don't quote me on it.

Do a search through the Yellow/White pages (or Google it) and you might get a list of workshops contracted to do them.

Dude, I'm pretty sure Hollandia will be reliable - IIRC they have enough of a reputation to be doing kits for new car dealerships both with sunroof installs and also power window kits.

I found this link to help you with a search, just in case you do wish to go ahead and/or find out more on pricing...

Also found this link too, for a direct link to Webasto.

You let your mates smoke in your car??? :D

If one of my mates did that, I'd hit the eject button and send them straight to the sidewalk...

Anyway, back on topic, a friend of mine had a Webasto sunroof on his Astra SRi and never had any problems with it. I know it cost him a packet to get fitted though and I think the novelty of having it wore off after a while.

Personally, I think sunroofs are a nice thing to inherit when you buy a car (i had one on my Prelude and loved it), but I could never justify paying the $2.5k to get one fitted.

Wouldn't you rather spend the money on go fast bits or a nice set of wheels???

point 1, no one should smoke in your car, unless you are talking a big fat blunt which is acceptable. even you should not smoke cigarettes in your own car.

point 2, if it was me and i really wanted a sunroof i would get a GTST with a factory nissan sunroof. much better. plus they brace the roof differently in sunroof models to counteract some of the lost strength.

actually no, there's not much bracing around the R32 factory sunroof... different shape roof support bar, that's about it.

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
