Installed a moonroof where my sunroof had been

Last week I was successful in finding and later getting installing a pristine (but used) Porsche moonroof in the opening where the sunroof had been.....took a big leap of faith to do it. Went in with a nary a hitch!

Just installed the new moonroof - easy peasy

Emile (Benz Elite Automotive, Fairfax, VA) made it look easy!

Moonroof

Where did you end up finding the Moonroof? I've been looking also but have had no luck.
Thanks,

Tom in Reno

EBay - keep ur eyes peeled, as these are uber-rare. Use: 2013, 2014, 2015 glass moonroof for Porsche Carerra (or sumtin like that) - then, set an Alert....you'll be GTG

The sun shade is only something that you can get when the car is ordered from the factory with it (barring extensive & expensive retrofit). NOT worth it. I might//might later get the moonroof tinted a bit more but I doubt it...

Very cool! Do you have a video on how you did the swap? Any more photos you can share of the process?

thanks in advance!
