1stgen 4runner moon/sun roof latch question

I had a recent encounter with a falling branch. Thankfully nothing broke. but it got me thinking if it had broken I dont have a replacement n would be SOL till i found another. Well i started doing some searching and found some but the latches where diff from mine.My question basically is did toyota have diff latch setups or is mine a aftermarket type? My trucks an 88 4runner I would appreciate if any of you guys would give me a definitive answer

Could be wrong but I don't think you're gonna find more than detail than the trim package (base, deluxe, SR5) with the VIN.

With an aftermarket sunroof, my guess would be that it didn't come with one.
