I will. Sad part is that I don't have any other place for the parts. Everything up there is lite and the intercooler has been pulled off. And working on fixing it. The roof also needs painted and will most like be removed and replaced with one that has a sunroof.

Will have to aftermarket. When I purchased my car new, I was going to order it with a Moonroof. It was not an option on Sedans. :-(

Yeah I was aware of there was no sunroofs in the sedans. I will most likely be using a 2 door skin/setup to accomplish getting a sunroof. That way it looks factory and I don't have the problems and cost of a aftermarket one. I know where I can get a assembly, but my main concern is getting the skin and bracketing so I can get it figured out what exactly needs to be done to transplant it.

Lol I don't know. I did actually get the pasesetter header and the rest of the exhaust pulled and set the tsudo on. Along with the upper radiator hose swapped out. Other than that nothing much else has happened. Just haven't had the time.

Yeah its off an 03+ says xm on it. Not sure if I will keep it or not.

Thanks yeah. Miss my sunroof in my old one and they did not make them factory on 4 door cavaliers. So I will have to add it.

lets put it this way. i have no clue if this one works or not. guy at the yard says if all the windows are closed and the bags go off that it makes the sunroof pop up. i have yet to test it so i have no clue if i still need yours or not. mainly bought this for the metal mounting brackets and skin.

Updates??

Nothing really. Messed with the sunroof and broke a slide so I will need to get a new track. Put the factory intake back on so I could move it around. I'm stuck on the trunk because I really don't like the easy street stuff and I don't have money money to buy the other air ride pump setup that I want to use. Along with I want to swap out to 2 slim tanks and get rid of this big one. Im also in limbo on what I want to do on the mounts. Im afraid if I move the mounts up higher that I might not get enough lift out of it. Hopefully after the first of the year I will have the funds and I can jump back into it.

the guys at the yeard are correct. when my bags went the sunroof popped. i readjusted it and its been fine since.

Might have to skip the sunroof idea then?

More funds should help....

Nope sunroof will be done. I just have to buy another track. There is a guy on here that I was gonna buy one off of. I just hope he still has it and I have to make it out his way to pick it up. Or I get one from the yard.
