1) it's gonna be costly i think
2) make sure whoever is installing it knows what they're doing...last thing you want is a leaking roof

He will have a leaky roof after a certain time period. No matter who installs it.

not really.

i had a "hollandia" sunroof installed aftermarket on my 96 gxe. The install shop is the same one that does it for dealers. My roof has been perfect for over 6 years. I LOVE it.

I guess you are lucky so far, lets knock on wood that it stays that way.

please explain your resoning, as long as they install a drain in the sunroof, there is no reason why it should leak. also, you said it will be "leaky after a certain time period", what exactly wears out that all of a sudden makes it leaky?

How much did that "hollandia" sunroof set you back?
