Sunroof Elimination
Does anyone know how many 951s were sold with out the sunroof option.
I'm sure the sunroof, being so big on such a small car, compromises the structual integrity of the car (not something you want in a racecar)
Are there any aftermarket kits to somehow eliminate the sunroof?
p.s.
i hate that big stupid sunroof!

Believe it or not, the sunroof cars are more structurally stable than the non-sunroof cars. Porsche spent some good money designing the roof structure. The bad news is the additional weight...
GT Racing offers a fiberglass replacement panel.

EDIT: Scott, you were a second faster than me :-)
Hmm... the sunroof makes the car even stronger cause you have extra struts in the roof to keep the structure if you put out the sunroof... the disadvantage is that it weights a lot...
i you want to remove the sunroof just get a new roof from Lindsey or just take an old one from a 924 (without sunroof) a.e.
