E=MC2 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Hi people. Yesterday i bought MB6 on scrapyard for spare parts. It cannot be legalized for daily drive, only i can use engine for replacement for my Aerodeck, but theres bunch of very good body, mechanic and eletrical parts.Because MB6 has sunroof, i would like to install it on my car. Is there any diferences on top panel between models with or without sunroof. Some rails, mounting points, strut bars.... or everything is the same, only sunroof model has whole in roof sheet (and ceiling ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeLaSoul Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I would think that the roof internals are very different between an MB6 with sunroof and MC2 without. Photo below is on the MC2 with sunroof internals, and as you can see there are several mounting points around the roof for the sunroof mechanism, plus the way the roof skin is cut and folded to make the sunroof seal.I think this is not feasible. It's not impossible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E=MC2 Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 sh... i think that folded skin is main problemif someone dig out roof picture of liftback or aerodeck non sunroof model, please attach it here so we can compare them.

hickster Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 you're doing it all wrong Definitely not, the sunroof is a real pain in the a*s- they weigh a ton, they leak, the drain holes are not big enough and cause major problems, the seals cost £375 to replace (cannot be detached from the glass), they constantly rattle, the inner cover also rattles, it catches on most roof bars when in the tilt position not to mention that an opening in the roof weakens the rigidity of the whole car. I'm getting mine deleted asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karjis Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Yeah, I never got the idea why to have sunroof and A/C in same car, and mostly if you have well equipped M with sunroof, you also have A/C. Okay roof window is nice, but otherwise sunroof is just stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
