I would think getting it to seal might be tough unless the glass could be made the same thickness as the metal. On second thought, is the metal panel curved at all? If so it would be really hard to get glass to fit the shape.

Make sure you take the filler plug off first.

What would you do with the support panel between the inner and outer sunroof? They would block a lot of the moon beams.

I think PorKen did something like that a couple of years ago. Here's a link to the thread...
