1110 is far too ,much, most places charge 700 -799 installed.

Or all youre going to get is the normal crew telling you its bunk...haha.

The roof portion is too small.The sunroof opening will be miniscule.
Also,when it open,its gonna stick out towards the back of the car.
Will look dope.
I had one installed in my daughters Eclipse quite some time ago.
Same thing...opening small...sticks out the back.
Sunroofs are made to go into the roof,not stick out .
Don't do it or,buy a G.

I've heard alot of people complain that the seals go bad after a few months and water will leak into your car, i personally wouldnt go for it but it's your car and your money lol

yeah destroy the most curved beautiful teardrop roof by cutting a hole in it and installing flat heavy glass and black urethane by a company im sure is your areas equivalent to west coast customs. bleck. dont let xzibit talk you in to ridiculous mods. (if you could even call it a mod)
dont do it, i know how they do aftermarket sunroofs. its very shotty at best. it will destroy the value of the car completely and look horrible. you would regret it after the first day.
get another set of wheels or a 240sx for $2k.

I've not seen a t-top/TARGA done on a Z.
Are there any pics of what is used for the roof?
I'd be worried about structural stuff...body stiffness.
Lamborghini has a similar "targa" type removable panel on one of their cars.
From what I've seen on the panel,its pretty complex to install.
Also,for a removable roof to me made,it would have to in a size to stow in the rear of the Z which as you know is not much room.Again,I wonder what type of panel is being used for this Z conversion?
