Default Did search.... looking for parts # for the manual sunroof from Ziebart...

I am also wondering what I should be looking for when searching out an installer. Also what was the going price for the install, around $350 right?

I am going to have this down by the end of next month. Along with window tinting

Any problems with it? Remarks? Do you think the structural integrity is diminished in stength?

Default No problems and no structure issues....>>>

There are no cross bars in the roof areas. The strength is in the boxed side arches. There's a little additional wind rustle as you're removing the insulation in the roof. Others haven't reported this, but I mounted mine as far forward as possible. Handled by a unobtrusive strip of black tape at the forward hinge if it bothers you.

Is the unit pre tinted? or do I have it tinted when I get it?

Default it comes with a modest tint...it's a great mod...no structural issues...no leaking issues...

but the most important thing is the quality of the installer!

Default what would you recommend I look for in an installer

Default the tt is not a particularly difficult car to install the sunroof on -- look for significant...

experience in installing sunroofs (maybe get a reference or two)...you don't want this to be the first roof, or probably not even the 10th or 20th...my guy has been installing roofs for about 10 years.
