PICS REQUEST: Panorama Roof

Can someone please post some good shots of the panorama roof? Open, closed, tilted(?), etc?

I really like the look but I'm not sure about the functionality.

Thanks in advance.

Funny that you should ask.. I just took these yesterday.

I'll try to get better shots up soon.

Are both open all the time, can you cover them up if it is really sunny like with the normal sunroof?

I was told they can be "covered" and it's automatic too.

They are the ambient lights that come on when your headlights are turned on. Looks very nice.

I faced a similar dilemma a few weeks ago. I had the opportunity to get a used (00 or 01) S430 (wholesale price) but went with the new E320. My friend loves his used S430 though. Relevant variables would be cost of warranty extension on the W220 and your confidence in the used's upkeep. Can't go wrong w/ either. I should have never called it a 'dilemma'.

There is no question- get the pano. No one has regretted it (except one nutcase, one in every crowd). Cant go wrong. If it does, well, they'll fix it.

Here's a pic. The brightness of the light can be adjusted using the buttons in the center.

I like my Pano Roof but one question people would ask is can the rear panel open too?

Thanks for the picture MPTLPTRPLTMPLRLPTMRL! So this slightly lights up the rear seating area at night? Kinda like the orange lights inside my e39 that shine down on the center console at night.

Very cool.
