911 sunroof in Karmann Ghia

Post by sirzo »

Hi I have just bought a 1969 Ghia.

Car will be modified and I am keen to install a sunroof in the car, but would like it to look as factory as I can.

I have an opportunity to buy/trade for a Porsche 911/912 1966 electric sunroof. I have a beetle metal sunroof clip but have been told the roof profiles are too different and that the 911 clip may be easier to manage.

Does anyone have any first hand experience in attempting this? A topic on the Samba indicates that the roof profiles are similar as well as the sunroof hole itself. Any assistance or information would be extremely welcome.

356 & Ghia sunroof clips are prohibitive for me price wise. I'm expecting that this sunroof project will cost $2-3K - not cheap but I would like to do it properly.

Please any further information would be welcome.
