its just a piece of vinyl with pockets sewn into it for the metal "bows" to go through.

unless you know how to take out your rear window your most likely going to ruin the headliner.

remove the back window, there is some adheisive on the edges of the headliner under the rubber trim on the door opening. Be very very careful pulling the edges off or you will tear the headliner. Pull out the intierior lite and sun visors, and that is about it if I rememberd all of it. There are 2 or3 meatle braces in the headliner that you will pull down in the middle to get them out of the pockets on the edges.

someone help him out if im forgeting anything

The reason i want a sun roof is because it can be very hot in the summer. My little windows dont help. When it gets to 110 out side you dont drive vehicles with bad air flow.

110 in the summer, well with that sunroof that 110 degrees is going to be burning on your head unless you tint it pretty dark. most of the factory sunroofs will have a coating on them to keep the heat from burning you up.

You don't have A/C? Try making one of those ice chest A/C coolers!
