what would it take to install a sunroof?
How do minis adhere to them?
Have many people made a mod such as this?
Could this be a costly mistake for a mini?

heres mine, all u have to do is cut a big unfixable hole into ur roof so have a good think about it, and if you do it make sure its very well sealed because if you drive in the rain u dont want a pond on ur head!!! but i reackon they look good, makes the car more sporty if u know what i mean

and from the inside, there is a bit that you fit under it so it stays in the roof and doesnt fly away, that is screwed in, no headlining in meeni yet, maybe thats the next job :( thats not rust inside the roof there, its glue, looks bad though

hope this is interesting to u

cheers

yeah man that looks crazy, i gotta get my roof panel beated and painted white before i get a sunroof installed. Can i get someone to do it for me? like what are the things i need to seal it correctly. i spose its better to cut it smaller than u need to right?

yer its best u cut a little less at first but it would be easier for a difficult job like this to get a pro installer to do it, mine is sealed with cylicone stuff, ander the black rim on the outside!

yer those sunroofs that slide back are awesome compared to the small glass ones in my opinion

If you fit a glass one make sure it has a sliding internal cover to block out the sun during summer. They are like a sauna to sit under otherwise. I know it sounds like a contradiction but all factory fitted glass panels have internal covers for this very reason.
