custom sunroof installation
The sunroof installation process is relatively straightforward. However, there are a few things you need to know about before you begin the installation. The first thing to know is that the sunroof needs to be raised from inside the vehicle as opposed to only being able to be lowered from outside of it. This means that if you don't have power tools or machinery, you will either have to get them or hire someone with their own equipment who can do the job for you. Next, remember that navigating through your car's sunroof during the installation process will probably require some maneuvering and strength...so plan ahead and maybe bring along an extra person.
The sunroof itself will be shipped to you in two or three pieces and will take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour to install. The sunroof can be installed either before or after you have had your dealer do the hardware installation.
The first step is opening up the trunk of your car and locating the main wiring harness for your car's audio system. You will remove a red clip from this end of the wire and then insert it into the sunroof control box located at the headliner of your vehicle, just between each rear-window and the headliner itself. In most cases, this installation removes the need to tap into the wires in your vehicle, which will prevent you from potentially damaging the original wiring.
Next, follow the instructions that came with your sunroof in order to locate and install the sunroof motor (the box with electrical wires attached). The motor is attached using a phillips-head screwdriver. Once you have installed the motor and have plugged it into an electrical outlet, you are ready to attach power to your new sunroof. This is when you will be installing your sunshade and closing your car's roof.
The last step is aligning your new sunroof's glass panels. First you will lift the glass into place, then remove the vent cover and power up your sunroof to allow for proper alignment of the glass. In most cases, this takes about 15 minutes.
In addition to taking advantage of a variety of features, getting a sunroof installed in your vehicle can be one way to substantially improve both the appearance and comfort levels of your car.
