Harbinger Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Do these sunroofs come with a cover of somesort? I see the hardware on the glass to install some sort of snap in cover, but I didn't recieve this with the truck, the previous owner opted instead to spraypaint it., which is now chipping and falling in tiny pieces all over my seats :-) Plus its really annoying to flip on everything on your light bar, only to be blinded by your own lights.

jj big shoe Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 They did make factory covers with the same pattern as the headliner. Maybe check you local boneyard for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 I've never seen one, and I mean NEVER. Heh. Tint the glass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94extreme Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 isn't the glass tinted already? i had one from the factory but we bought the first one brand new... never used it though... it had plastic screws that go in those "holes" in the glass...

jj big shoe Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 Yeah, I got mine from my buddy's '95 and used different bolts and plastic knobs to make it fit the threaded "holes" in my '87. I'll keep an eye out for another one if anyone's interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 If it's already tinted, tint it MORE. hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardwaretoad Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 (edited) I got a quote of somewhere in the neighborhood of $200. from the stealer for the factory sunshade, they are impossible to find in the wrecking yards, kind of like "good" armrests... The moonroof can be tinted, but you'll have a much longer curing time due to the dot matrix tinting that's already on there. Air bubbles might be a real problem because of them, too ~ no way to "squeegee"... -thnkboutit- Plus its really annoying to flip on everything on your light bar, only to be blinded by your own lights. I love to see these rigs with half a dozen lights on their rollbar or roof rack, then they have a sunroof in there, too... no way to turn them on without blinding themselves. Even without a sunroof, top mounted lights have a tendancy to light up every speck of dust, dirt, bugs, etc. on your windshield, your hood, yadda, yadda, yadda...

Harbinger Posted March 7, 2005 Author Share Posted March 7, 2005 Eh, No Need, I sanded it down and gave it a couple coats of primer/spray paint over the weekend. No need to dump more money into this truck when I have paint sitting around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
