Default FS: Saratoga Sunroof

I've had this Saratoga Sunroof for a couple months, and I've finally gotten around to selling it. It's the bronze tinted one for electric roofs. I had it on my car briefly and it fit fine, but that's pretty much all I know about it. I also have the original bag made of what looks like leather. It is in perfect condition and is included with the top. I have included some pictures here, but if anybody needs more pics of something specific, please let me know.

I am asking $800 plus shipping, but am open to reasonable offers. After this, I will either list it on eBay or hold on to it until someone is interested. Also, if you questions, please feel free to ask and I will answer to the best of my ability. Thanks.

Hopefully you'll take some of the $900 from the sale and pay for a new camera or tuition for a photography class....

ouch.

I think the saratoga market went south with the stock market.

Be patient, you should get close to asking price.

Wow,. I was in a hurry, but I didn't think the pictures were that bad. You get the idea of the condition of the top though. Smokiemon, what do you think is a reasonable asking price? I just posted $900 to put something up, but I'm open to any offers.

You just need to get the focus settings right, I'm sure the camera is ok. Saratoga tops are very nice, good luck with the sale.

This top has been sitting in my closet, still in mint condition. I lowered the price to $800 plus shipping... any offers?

Default They were a little over $600 new, including shipping

Just for an idea of what they cost new, see the item below, bottom row, second from left:

Hey, I'm in Austin! I'm interested but can't figure out how it fits? Am I no longer able to use the power sunroof once this gets dropped in?

I'm not 100% sure but I believe you can still tilt the sunroof with the glass top in. When I get a chance I could put it back on my car and check it out, or since you're local maybe you want to see it in person?

As far as fit, it slides in like the standard top and has its own latches for the front, and places for the arms in the back to slide in.
