Gosh JJ, I was under the impression you were a wild and crazy ladies man in your mid 20s...You need to get all that you can do to your car finished before you get much older... It seems like all at once your body and brain starts to deteriorate and you can't get around to getting things done... It's real bad if you have a few grand tied up in parts when it happens.

this install shouldnt be a big deal. it isn't too crazy. just drill the welds out and put the new roof in. we've done a few roof swaps including A and B pillars before at work

Well TC ,the wild and crazy man is still here, at heart, I've lived a very complex and interesting life,here and in the states,3 years in PA back in '72, 7 years in FL in the 80's dealt with a few difficult women in my life,finally settled with one (also difficult but manageable),still have my health and my brain seems to work for now,but yes,I better hurry up,, time is passing so damn fast ,sometimes it is scary,I deal with that with humor and exercise when I get a break.JJ

let me be very clear - I have a jazz with a panoramic roof. You will ROAST in hot summer weather with this. Don't install this to cool down!

On the other hand, it's great in cool weather or on grey days to get a bit more light into the car.
