Hey guys, how hard would it be to put a sunroof on car without one? How much time? How much money? Thanks guys.

I watched them do it once on Shadetree Mechanic. 3-5 hours depending on the vehicle. You basically have to remove the headliner, measure and cut your hole, fit in the sunroof and seal it, put back in the headliner and put in trim pieces. Most sunroofs come with all the parts and on some cars you have to move the dome light. I have one on my car and I love it. I finally figured out how to take it out. So it wont be so bad without a/c this summer. Looked at a couple pop up ones on the net. Lowest was 140 and the most was 260.

Shit, that's not bad at all. Thanks for the info man :)
There are a lot of cars out there with leaking aftermarket sunroofs. Measure twice, cut once.
