I was watching Trucks! on Spike TV yesterday and they installed a ragtop sunroof, sparks went off in my head..."why not on a mustang?"
I think a well installed Ragtop Sunroof would really make the summer more enjoyable. Any one out there thought of this??? anyone know if this would void any warranties??? this is the kind I had in mind:

Does any one know any brands to look for when searching for a Ragtop Kit????

Interesting concept ... don't think I would do it. Your link just brings you to Ecommerce Hosting Solutions.

Yes, you did fix the link ... but, my goodness, I would NOT do that to my car!! Looks rigged ... would be afraid of leaking, etc.

I wouldn't chop up my car for that or a moon roof! You should have considered a convertible in the first place. Anything after market and your just going to have problems with leaks.

That is just wrong to put on a new mustang. If you want to see the moon, buy the glassback roof. If you want wind in your hair... roll the windows down. But DO NOT, i repeat DO NOT put that on a mustang!

Seriously, that looks like something a moron would do to his car. Not to mention....you would seriously effect the structural integrity of your car

You know, "jury rigged" ... in other words, I think it looks like a shoddy aftermarket part ... just my opinion.

how dare you, I have lots of posts other than the three ragtop posts. I only spread then out to get more views nothing illegal about that!

I stand firm in saying that a quality after market sunroof would do nothing but improve my Stang and I will "chop" my car anyway I see fit.

can you stand the "w t f were you thinking? you hax0red your stang for that panda poostick" and all the other 1337 comments about that shotty mod? I think you'll even void the corrosion warranty with that "kit", *omgwtfbbq* it looks bad.

We wouldn't mod our stangs if we didn't want them to not all look the same ... we all do stuff to our cars, but I think the consensus here is this aftermarket sunroof/moonroof/ragtop doesn't look good or of good quality.

Again, I aplogize for offending you ....

Pooping on the roof would be a better mod in my opinion. Compared to your roof idea. They will both look like poop, but the poop won't ruin your car.

I'm not suring if you are going to keep the car forever or not. The resale value on the car with a hugh hole in the top can't be good. You would have a tough time selling to someone that was a Mustang fan. You might have to pay someone to haul it away.

Resale value ... that's a very valid point!
