Panoramic Roof
So the newer model 129's have the panoramic roof...can I replace my 92 hard top with a removable panoramic roof? Will they swap straight out? I assume they would be hard to find, but if I did locate one, would it be as simple as just putting it on vice the hard top?
I added a picture of a sunny day config (lots of them here in San Diego) but winter is here so the hard top comes out...that's why I am looking at panoramic roof availability.

KLP 92 explains how he has put a panorama roof on his 1991 SL500.
The panorama roof was not made available till 1997. When the new "panorama" hardtop became available as an optional alternative to the standard lift-off aluminum roof.
Maybe email him for more details.

Nice looking car, Teal. I got a Pano hard top on my 2002 Silver SL500, and I really like it. Makes the car seem very open and roomy. Although we get many sunny days here in San Diego, this weekend didn't include them - a very rainy two days. Just perfect for the pano hard top.

It's been cold and wet down here in San Diego. Especially if you go east of the city a ways. North County has been as cold as Seattle according to the weather channel. It was snowing like mad on Laguna mountain this morning.
I didn't even get the SL500 out of the garage this weekend - sigh.
