Custom sunroofs in Maidstone can't be beaten!
Have had roofs done there before and Peter is a top bloke and after you visit his work shop and see how organized he is you'll be impressed.... You could also try prestige, but custom are better |

Isn't Prestige Sunroofs in Burwood who were the sunroof installers for Ford when Sunroofs were an option?

I drive past prestige a fair bit and they seem to do alot of work for dealerships, as there are trade plates everywhere. Very hard to get a parking space anywhere near them.

Hey just wondering what you'll be paying?
*This is what I was told Thanks for your reply, the recommended retail price for the Hollandia 700 fitted is $2395.00, as*your car is BA XR6 which is straight forward to install into we can bring the price down to $1995.00, at this stage this is our best price we can offer you, we do need the car for just over a day to install, bookings are about 1 week ahead, if you have any other queries do not hesitate to contact us |

Anything better is just a bonus. Just make sure you ask for the cream coloured control and shade handle. Otherwise you get the standard black ones. They are apparently HSV specific parts, so cost a little more. But are well worth it. Cos me an extra $100 or so for mine, but at least it perfectly matches the interior. |

I had a quote from the place in noble park for $1995 but they dont supply a loan car and so I went through the burwood place who quoted $ 2100 but have a great little focus for a loan car and they have a good reputation as I have found out.

One thing I find, that I never thought of untill I got a sunroof... is that being 6ft 4", the sunroof frame thickness lowers the rooflining 2-3" which means I hit my head on the roof! :(

We'll they do come at a space price. I'm 6'2" and am still comfortable, head not hitting anything. Unless I let my hair grow too long.
You'll also probably find they make the back seat unusable for tall people. |
