Curious since I'm new to these 928s...it appears lots of folks are looking to delete the sunroofs. Why? Stiffness? You guys all over 5'9 (because at 5'9 I find there to be plenty of headroom, but then I came from Alfas which have no headroom anyway).
I have no sunroof.

For headroom, and for me to get rid of a never used piece of metal that was always leaking at some point
I'm only 5'10", but my 1980's hairstyle was rubbing against the sunroof liner...so off with the roof
In addition, it does save a bit of weight, perhaps in the range of 12-14 lbs.
Cheers!

I had a 924 before getting the 928.
It leaked so sealed it with the two part aircraft trim sealant. No more leaks from there.
Got a 928 WITHOUT the sun roof.
Seems like a lot of work and $$$ to change.

In my case, since I am doing a complete ground up repaint/refurbish (https://rennlist.com/forums/928-foru...ished-car.html), spending $375 on a roof panel, and some of my own sweat is not so bad in order to keep my hair nice and poofy and dry And on top of that I get lighted vanity mirrors too
But yes, if I had a shop do it, the bill would be pretty steep I think.
Cheers!

I don't think it's you--I think it's more about the year of the car (and seats.) I'm 6'1" and had a hard time sitting in my 84 without raking the seat back. But no problem at all in the GTS.
