whats the difference between A sunroof and a moonroof

[Dy_]

moon roof i believe you have this plastic piece there so that when its raining you are still able to have the moonlight or sunlight come through without having water coming in?

something like that...?

[Jamezy]

difference with a sunroof and a moonroof is that moonroof's are made of clear glass so it is see through whereas sunroof's are not see through glass and is the same colour as the car and is made of a metal ..

These days, both terms are used to mean the same thing anyway.

[sleeper]

as neonode stated sunroofs and moonroofs are just considered the same thing these days

[baeshin]

called sunroof by day and moonroof by nyt lol

[Petronas]

Though in honest truth, once you go moonroof you wont want to go back to sunroofs.

You feel so claustrophobic in your car once you close the blind on your moonroof. I always have mine open no matter what, car feels so much more open and spacious.

thinking of getting a moonroof for my del sol .. but for security reason i think its best not to.. its basically like a clear targa top.

[JasonGilholme]

you can get glass targa's for the del sol. Very Very rare tho.

Same thing, different smell. Question answered.

Nooo..
Even by Wiki's defination.

It states that "The term moonroof has also been applied to sunroofs that can only tilt to provide additional ventilation". This doesn't create the defination; it simply points out that the uneducated have labelled a device incorrectly.

A general acceptance is through complacency. Bloody hell.

A Sunroof is opaque; a moonroof is transparent, damn it!

Whether or not it retracts is irrelevant!
