Good to know... Thank you for checking!! I'm going in to tomorrow to review options......

This exact thing happened to me with my 2010 SS/RS where they said they forgot to add the 2SS/RS for the halo headlights.

Turns out they located one exactly as I ordered minus the halo headlights and was hoping I'd just take it...they make more money on a car already built...I'd be curious to see how many miles it had on the odometer when you went to pick it up.

No Prob. Anything you thought twice about that you can now order?

GearheadSS · 08-21-2013, 06:41 PM

Sunroof is overrated in the Camaro. The opening is quite small and it decreases headroom. Besides, a sunroof has no place in a track oriented car like the 1LE. I'd take the car that came in and drive the hell out of it.

I was a guy coming from 4th gens that all had T-tops. I vowed not to get a sunroof because of the headroom issue and the fact that I've seen plenty of them get stuck and stop working. I haven't regretted not having one at all.

No - it's loaded as far as factory options. Funny thing is I was originally going to skip the sunroof out of concerns for helmet room but read the recaro's took care of that....thanks for the verify

I'm going to see what they come up with tomorrow and decide..... if they make up for it properly I'll drive off otherwise the wait begins...again....

Summers almost gone and I'm in NJ......

I don't know how the Recaros can take care of the headroom clearance for a helmet unless the seat sits lower than the standard seat. There's no way I could wear a helmet in a sunroof car, regardless of seat. I'm 6'5" though. lol

I actually ordered mine with Recaro's and they came without any.

My original order sheet has them but the invoice didnt so I wasnt charged but still.

I wanted a 1SS. The GF only wanted a sunroof. I bought one without it. That was in April of 2012. I hear about it every day since
