Eh, needs moar chrome to finish it off, but do it right at least. Take off the fake hood vents and the window panel. The wheel vents look decent. I would look into some headlight covers or find some better loooking headlights. I hate the OEM look of our monte's.

I dont know if the LS had that option, but I don't have one. If your going to try and fix it I'd replaces the seals. Most likely the motor is broken or not connected if its stuck shut.

no the motors good, its the cables and frame. the cables broke, so i had to close it by hand but in the process cracced the frame....



and finding a replacement sunroof and having it installed would be just as pricey as the raw materials to rag top and suede headliner it....

Check around local junk yards. Remember the Lumina is the 4door mutant copy of our car and there are loads of them out there. You might get lucky and find one with a sun roof.

My 99 Z34 had a broken sunroof so I had the dealer fix it before I bought it. I need to replace teh sunroof seal...learned that after taking it through the car wash. Found this site and ordered a seal from them.
