The only thing I regret about my respray is not waiting for an Audi tilt/slide roof to come up and getting that fitted and sprayed at the same time.

Or can you transfer the Audi workings across?

I got the impresion u just needed the internals and you can use ur current sunroof. Might not be the case tho ive never seen a polo with one fitted or an audi 80 for that matter. They must b super rare.

Hmm... the workings of my sunroof are fooked, this might be worth a go. 8)

I've seen a grey German one with a tilt/slide, looked very cool indeed.

It's the same story as a mk2 golf. You need to replace the lot. Mech, and sunroof.

Think I'll give it a miss then.

Lots of work, and money to get it sprayed up, for what it does.

Shame, I've always wanted one.

Where would you get the sunroof itself from though? surely its narrower than an audi one? and where would you get the golf one from?

They're all the same, as long as they're metal they're all the same size.
