I have seen several nice aftermarked Power Sunroofs installed in 95-97 explorers. I am interested in doing this to my truck. Has anybody had this done, or know where I can have it done? Any information is appreciated.
Thanks

sunroof

There's a "spoiler" type sunroof that actually moves on top of your roof. A sunroof place would charge about $600 for that. To get the "moonroof" where the window slides into the roof would be $1,100 (in MA). I've heard of places doing them cheaper around the country.
I bought a moonroof and overhead console from a 1997, but haven't gotten the chance to install it. Might end up selling the pices too. The only missing peice would be the metal braket that gets welded to the roof of your truck. Obviously couldn't get that piece.....
BBQ_HotDogs thought about doing this. And teh topic has been discussed. I think someone in CO got a sunroof installed for like $600, but that's apparently more of an exception than a rule.

Please be careful as after market roof can and do leak often, make sure you have a very good supplier who will swear by the work- be warned.
 






sunroof

I just bought a 95 XLT that had a sunroof/moonroof in it. It is an ASC (American Sunroof Company) brand. It leaks, it will not close once opened, and is just a general pain in the qxreur. Just my 2 cents.
 






Think Black magic had one put in his sport aftermarket, might ck with him
 






I also have plans on getting an aftermarket sunroof. They are not cheap by any means and do come with some good warranties. The cost around here is about 1100. This is who I am more than likely going to get to install mine. http://www.texasautotrim.com/
