Mine was shipped on Monday and arrived Tuesday! That's an International record, guess that's why the 125.00 in shipping. Looks great.

Just a heads up for my fellow manual sunroof latch brethren, I think I've figured out how to adapt the Pilk roof to our latches. A bit of fabrication involved but nothing too exotic, need to do a bit more testing and then I'll post I'm my solution.

Has anything become of this? I've yet to unbox mine because of this issue. I'd rather it be ready to ship back should their be a recall.

Hello guys
Just discovered this topic and i am very excited by this sunroof

Got some questions
Did I understood right, only bronze color is currently available ?

Did someone in Europe already ordered and received one of this tops ?

Is there really an "issue" of wind noise ?

thank you

Mine went from silent to a little noise over about 80 mph - the driver's side does not seem be as flush a fit. I am curious if others have the same experience.

I would not call this an issue. It is quieter than the stock roof on my '86 and waay quieter than my original saratoga.
