i would consider this but it seems that its not fool proof. Ifi saw this in person,and the noise was minimal, and no leaks, and a reasonable price, i would definitly go with this option

I'm a shorter guy and headroom is not a worry for me plus the reverse mowhawk is kept on the outside. Not sure if I want someone torching into my cars roof though. I don't care how good they are, things can happen. And it can't be undone very easily without noticeable remnants.

I like the fact that it opens into the car but the weather stripping looks cheap and out of place compared to the factory roof. I also don't think the flat glass with the reverse mohawk looks good.

just an fyi guys if you install an aftermarket sunroof on your 2010 camaro it will void your entire warranty on the car. check all your local dealers for the info regarding this. it comes straight from corporate. i was thinking of aftermarket to save money and my dealer warned me of the consequences of doing it. they were all informed in training seminars for the camaros.

Agreed. I used to hate the way it looked, but now, after seeing a bunch of angles of it, i think it looks sweet. very sporty.

EXACTLY! The big rubber weather stripping is a dead giveaway you got an aftermarket sunroof. It resembles those "low rent" sunroofs that they used to sell in K-mart.

Kudos for making it roll inside the roof.
Fail on having to cut the roof and that brace behind it.
Fail on the rubber gasket.
Fail on not matching the roofline shape.

Here's a tip:
Get GM to design a roof panel with the right supports and the right hole with the proper drainage and proper sealing (no exposed gasket) and sell this design to GM as the OEM roof.

I was one of the big critics of the exterior unrolling roof because it looks cheap while open. That rubber gasket makes this one look cheap all the time. I will pick the GM roof over this. At least I can close the factory roof up and have the car look good. This one you can't escape the cheap look.

i love sunroofs but i hate aftermarket sunroofs because for 1 they use that cheap thick rubber gasket that sticks out of the car the way GM designed the factory sunroof is impressive the way it opens steal the cake stick with the GENERAL that oem sunroof is trash

If Webasto could do it, why couldn't GM make it like this from the factory?
