Lightbulb Panaromic Sunroof Mod on a Sedan

Hello ,

I was wondering by any chance would it be possible to fix a coupe sunroof on a sedan . I am sorry but in my country we dont get Coupe models of the C class so I cant imagine or see for myself if its possible ....

Thank you very much for your sugestions in advance

That would be an awesome mod!!!

I'd like to see it, but I think it's way too difficult.

Now, I saw something interesting in the Philippines when I visited this summer. I saw a w203 SEDAN with a panorama roof. It was clear to me b/c the car was white, and the contrast between the main body and roof was huge.

Did the w203 sedans sent to Asia get pano roofs as an option? Or was I just imagining things?

The coupe roof is a lot narrower than the sedan roof so you won't get the edge to edge feel you want. Personally I don't understand why anyone would want such a large sunroof, just get a convertible. Also the E320 has the option of the panorama roof.

u were just imagining things, it might have been an E class or a CCoupe. worse case, it could have been a C sedan with its roof painted black.

Are you sure about the Coupe roof being narrower than the sedan as if that is the case then no point even thinking about the mod as it would not look good .

Please can you surely confirm with this regard .... Thank you

I think the sun roof gives a good feeling - again it is personal issue ...

Thank you again .....

i love the pano roof. im not a convertable person, but the pano roof give me a convertable feel while still reamining closed in. like HITMAN i love the airy feel it give, all the light allowed by the shades being open and the large sunroof which is 30% larger than a standard roof.
