Fitting a Sunroof

The electric sunroof is one of the most elegant accessories to see on a car and is one of the options that make it more luxurious and comfortable. Additionally, one feature not to underestimate is that the sunroof allows for significant fuel savings compared to that required by standard air conditioning systems, as it lets in air directly without the need for other devices.

If you decide to install it yourself, all you need to consider is that you will need a specific installation kit, an electric drill, spanners, screwdrivers, pliers, a grinder, and don’t forget safety glasses and durable work gloves. Now, let’s move on to some simple instructions for the installation: the first thing to do is determine whether you prefer an opening panel or a fixed glass panel that only has a panoramic function.

Clearly, the latter is simpler to install. If you choose to install a sunroof, you will need to follow a few precautions during the work.

After obtaining the appropriate work kit, including the sunroof, position it on the vehicle, having accurately marked where to locate it. Once you have made the drill holes, use a grinder to cut around the edges. At this point, remove the rectangle of metal from the vehicle.

Then, fix the protective film strips and the side strips along the edges and insert the deflector. Finally, connect the switch with the wires and check that everything works correctly.
