sunroof swap

[curlyboy07]

Has anyone put a sunroof on a non sunroof car??

I had a 90 lx with an aftermarket roof, mostly it sucked.
You could always do this to get a factory setup http://board.accordtuner.com/showthr...-is-about-done

looks like quite a task for the layman, if I had a shop with all the goodies Id dive in. Wiring would probably be real fun too

Not tryin to be a dick... but I just simply typed the word "sunroof" into the search and baboom! There's like 20 threads about this... The mods here can't stand repeated thread topics esp without searching first. Just a heads up

[S.W.A.T]

i cant find it but i remember seeing a guy in this fourm with a dual sunroof.

Aftermarket sunroof kits are available, and I'm sure an OEM sunroof could be installed in a similar fashion... still, it's doubtful that such an installation will be nearly as clean or leak-free as one from the factory. It'd be easier and cheaper just to get another CB7 with a sunroof (EX and SE in the US, EX-R and SE in Canada)... swapping any parts you want to keep from your current car.

I have a lx with a sunroof A tree fell on the car a while back so it needed a new roof so my uncle went with a ex so he could get the sunroof. It was done like the link provided above and is leak free.

[deevergote]

you actually installed a new roof on the car? Interesting!

Man, that's dedication... if a tree fell on the car, I'd just get a new car! (maybe... I do love MY CB7... just just any CB7.)

Yea well it was when my uncle owned the car and he had it done but I think insurance money helped to lol.

If you think about it, it's really not THAT hard for someone who is able to do the kind of fabrication required to do it.

Replace the roof skin with a sunroof equipped one. Install the sunroof, run the wiring. Fuse block should already have a spot for it.

This is not something I would embark upon if you've never even tried to put bondo on a rusty quarter panel.

Aftermarket sunroofs are easy to install. The hardest part is the first cut. Getting the balls to plunge through your roof. Lay the templet out. When it's right smack dead in the middle of it with a hammer. That leaves you two options. Cut that bitch or drive around with a dented roof. Guarentee you'll put it in then.

The last one I put in was a Panaramic
Glass roof on a srt8 300. I'd rather put in sunroof instead of doing that again

Thanks guys i'm gonna look into this a little more, sorry for putting upanother post of the same topic lol
My friend has a shop so if I every get the balls to cut myroof I'll do it, and maybe take pictures of the process if someone hasn't already done it

i think im going to do Aftermarket sunroof later after i get my car running lol
in Honda's sunroofs are a must

Surprisingly, I don't miss having a sunroof in my coupe. It's my first CB without one.

I helped install a sliding rag top in an ext cab S10 a couple years ago. It's not hard, it's just one of those things you need to do right.

for any one wanting to know its not hard at all me and my cousin have done this to his 92 dx 2 door accord..... we started by taking measurments of course as well as some taping then we took apart the top to the crashed cb7 ....just if your wondering sun roof went from two door too two door dont know if sunroofs from 2 door and 4 door are interchangable...took the sunroof out which weighed a ton... then we took apart the good cb7s roof and started cutting out the hole after that it was a st8 forward bolt in.... easy from my opinion
