SunRoof deflector

Question for those of you that have removed yours, does it rain in the car (when your movig duuuu)?

My Subaru SVX didn't i could preaty much leave the sunroof open during downpour and not get any significant water if any at all inside, but the sunroof rolled up on top of the car when retracted not into the car like the max's does, so my question stands.

i would imagine there are sunroof drains design to take SOME of the water. but wtf are you doing with the sunroof open in a downpour? i've left mines open a crack or 2 when it was soft and my visor was on and then when i took it off a couple drops got in. Its a freaking judgement call. you open your sunroof in the rain expect water in your car non the less

Just vent the rear of it up, while you're driving no water should get in the car. The sunroof deflector only covers the front, doesn't make any difference while it's vented.

What pmohr said, just vent it water almost never gets in moving or not when you vent it. Granted some times it will, but for the most part it won't. Just vent it it's that simple.
