i didnt think we could get a sunroof jazz down under... but if u can i guess it's always good :)

i know they were selling them in HK tho... lots of those around with sunroofs. i dont think the jazz needs one though IMO ;)

those jazz in HK is made to have sunroof in it.
the one in Aus are simply like cut a hole and drop a sunroof in
i got a frd have an aftermarket sunroof from honda and after few years, water is leaking in.
so IMO, car with aftermarket sunroof will depreciate a lot more than the one without sunroof

I just say if ppl have a bit common sense or know a bit about car, they will not buy a second hand car with aftermarket sunroof.
Leaking is a MUST but depends WHEN

So your saying if there were two Jazz 2003 VTI-S for sale one for a sunroof and one without one......a person with common sense would not get the one with the sunroof because, in the long run it's gonna leak ?

People buy sunroofs to enhance there enjoyment of there driving experience, just like a convertible and etc..... And of course with all new things it gets old and needs fixing or problems occurs, that's why they have warranty's and when problems arise you either fix it or get another car.................

i will if u are not noob to car
non-factory item are always like that mate
factory Fit come with sunroof which is directly builb from factory and the body of the car is build for having a sunroof.
convertible is built as a convertible from factory. if u cut the top and make it convertible, will it be as good?
Factory seal is always way better than aftermarket one. Also Honda never did sunroof himself. He is refer to BMW in Melbourne. Even there is warranty, let say 3 years. What happen after 3 years? If problem comes up and u have to fix it once per few months. Worth or not....

That doesn't make sense and it's a silly example


Factory seal is always way better than aftermarket one.
That is not the case, after market offer 3 years warranty, you factory car is also 3 years warranty, when do people get sunroofs, when it's brand new most of the time.


Also Honda never did sunroof himself. He is refer to BMW in Melbourne. Even there is warranty, let say 3 years. What happen after 3 years? If problem comes up and u have to fix it once per few months. Worth or not...

Hey I would be pretty confident in letting BMW do the work let alone prestigesunroofs in melbourne sydney i can't say . wouldn't you say BMW is a class above honda ????

Mate i got no idea where you get you ideas from. Hollandia make the best aftermarket sunroofs. and lots of people yes do experience problems with products, thats life sh%t happens

your 6000k BJUnion HID kit, since honda didn't fit them from factory, whats your warranty on you HID ??? If problem comes up and u have to fix it once per few months. Worth or not???... your car was not designed to have HID, it's illegal for you to have them, Do you have washers for them in the front ??? did you get some aftermarket headlight washers installed as well ??? to make them legal.......

I hope you get my drift ;)

TypeG
07-05-2005, 05:00 PM
well, my HID as an example is a silly example too mate. I can always swap back to stock one within 3 mins. Can an aftermarket sunroof do that? fit the hole up?
my frd got the problem and that's y i told ppl here TRY not to do it. However, as i say, leaking happen only when car is like after few years driving. I told u, BMW will NEVER can fix the problem WELL when it really leaking.
i will stop here since u love sunroof so much and just do it. yr car and money.

Well my folks BMW with a sunroof started leaking....there goes your "BMW will NEVER" theory....you do realise BMW quality isn't the best out there right?

As with any mechanism that uses rubber seals, they will eventually wear out whether they are factory fitted or not. As people have stated here, the aftermarket sunroofs will come with warranties similar to those offered by vehicle manufacturers so there is no real issue.

To me the bigger concern is the integration of a sunroof as an aftermarket item will often look just that...aftermarket.

I think it will be hard to find an aftermarket sunroof that slides in to the roof. Remeber that your car was never designed for a sunroof. Cars that come with sunroofs from the factory that recess in to the roof will have lower interior roof lines to allow clearance for the sunroof. You also need to take in to account the design of the roof and whether it allows for the sunroof to fit in the roof.

The deal at Roseberry for $1500 sounds like something worth looking in to!

A friend has leaking happen to him., well i know heaps of people that have a sunroof some had good experience some bad, it's like buying a black car, you know it's going to looked dirty in 5 mins but...does that stop people buying black cars. NO

Why don't you go jump in the Euro section and tell them all they shouldn't of got a luxury because of a sunroof and it will leak in a few years time, well see what kind of flaming you get:D like the last stunt you pulled about your jazz vs Euro. cause you started something you couldn't finish.

am I flame on u somehow b4? all yr example is just not working. every cars will get dirt anyway. does that stop ppl buy a car but go for a bike?
For Euro, they come with factory which is build for having a sunroof in their car. If a basic model want to add a sunroof in their car, i will say no. If u want a sunroof, go for the luxury model if u have extra cash plus u like euro so much. Like Jus10 say, car is build for having a sunroof is totally different to a car which is not. Again, I am here to tell the fact the having an aftermarket sunroof is not as cool as u think. If u want, just go for it as water leaking is in yr car not mine.
Lastly, do u agree aftermarket sunroof is not as good as the one come with factory?

Did I mention your Name or Avatar ? I don't recall if i did you can refresh my memory.....And you right Aftermarket sunroofs might not be good for the cars structure or rigity...but can be as good as the factory one, what you think factory one don't stuff up ???

Having a sunroof is not about being "Cool as a fact" what just beause you don't like sunroofs you don't need to put forward negative comments as you mention, FYI is not about being cool it's about enjoying it. You obviously have not been in a car with a sunroof or you scared it might ruin you hair. Because if you have you would not make such comments

My last car had a sunroof put in and it was aftermarket, didn't have one problem with it, and as far as i know the guy I sold it to has not had a problem yet either.

If you read Jus10 commets carefully word for word.... there are no negativity toward sunroofs just concerns like all things, and from the horses mouth his parents own a BMW witha sunroof that his had issues. and with all sunroofs that I agree that it interior is lower due to a sunroof installed, Guess what it's all the same with any car....aftermarket or not it will decrease headroom of your a tall sucker.

I have owned a MRS and EK4 so I am still want a sunroof but only if they are come from factory. I just tell ppl the fact that aftermarket sunroof will have the risk on leaking and it is HARD to fix it well. It takes time so if u going to own a car like few years from new is okay but problem must come up ONE day. That's all i want to say.

Sorry .. miss this one out.. Dreams.. Didn't notice any lower in the ceiling.. These guy at Prestiege sunroof has done a pretty cool job.. I was told by the honda dealer that they actually put a reinforcement bar into the roof for added support if the car happen to roll.. and as far as I was told, it is actually better than the factory sunroof.. not sure how legit is that.. but who gives a sh*t..I 3 years warranty on the sunroof like all other parts in the car.. if any sh*t happens or broken. including tranny, engine etc.. you still have to pay out of your own pocket to fix it.. right? Life is too short... enjoy it while you can.. :thumbsup:

I think with the JDM models they have the antenna towards the back of the car so it is not going across the opening of the sunroof.

In the pics posted of the OEM sunroof, you can clearly see how they have lowered the interior roof lining (look around the grab handles).

Looks good!

iirc only post facelifted cars can have the antenna towards the back and it is part of an option pack the includes LED indicators (on mirrors) & tail lights.
