I went to the junkyard the other day and spotted a 2nd gen with a sunroof. I thought it would be pretty nice to ripp it out and install it on my protege. I took off my head liner today to see what kind of supports the roof has. It was basicly just one bar going down the center of the roof. Im going tomorrow to the junkyard to compare the roof frame diffreneces between my pro and the one in the yard. If they are very similiar i may be getting a sun roof : P
BTW im thinking it may be an easy install. I say this because our proteges were built to be cost effective so mazda didnt want to make a bunch of diffrent frames. They just made one frame with most of the holes already punched out. This is not to say that the hole for the sunroof will be there but i think maybe the supports and all will be there. This is just what i learned from my manual swap. All the mounts and holes for the clutch cylinder and pedal where already there!
