Default OK, nobody here to answer at this time so I bought it. $150 shipped ;-)

And that's including all the parts along with the motor and the control trim and switch.

Are all of you guys in lines today for StarWars?

He he. If I wanted to buy Bentley I'd save myself writing here. True not?

Re: He he. I think the guys with the Bentleys end up doing most the writing.

Default Should be easy

If you simply want to replace metal with glass, that should be easy. I have a glass sunroof on my 97A6QA, and it is held on with three bolts on either side, two of which are loosened for height adjustment. You need to pull out the felt baffles to see the bolts.

I think he needs to add the shade. It is not that simple.
