Hope this helps.

so you need the entire sunroof? you can't convert the one you have?
Brett, I won;t be bidding on that, so don;t worry if you want it.

Eyal,

I went whole hog when I converted to manual sunroof and ripped out EVERYTHING that was related to the power roof, all gears, all guides, all trim, the electric sunroof panel and the motor. I replaced it with a true manual roof panel and latches and the latch receivers and trim for the interior. In total you save about 5 1/2 pound just by swapping the electric roof panel out for the manual roof panel. This is actual weight taken on a certified postal scale. Throw in the motor and other junk and you save another 5 pounds or so. The way I did it was a pain in the *** though and most people take the far simplier Sidviscous route which doesn't really save much if any weight. You can swap out for a manual roof panel using his method though and save that extra 5 1/2 pound if you want.

Oh, and yes the manual and electric panel are slightly different, including weight. Do a search and you will find pictures I posted a while back of what the underside of each looks like and how they are different
