Been there, done that...
Had a glass moonroof, and it's just too hot, especially here in Hawaii...
I sold that and put back my original metal one.
Sorry for the threadjack.

i would love to have a sunroof. i've removed the ac system. it's not that big a deal since i hardly use the a/c in my other car. not a prob with the jack, input is welcomed. i'm undecided about my car though,there is someone on another forum that wanted to trade me his 85 gsl se for it. he didn't tell me the whole truth about his car so i didn't trade him. i'm having second thoughts about my decision.

I dunno why anyone would trade down for a 1st gen (even though it's a GSL-SE), unless they were feeling nostalgic?

Rack & pinion versus recirculating ball steering
IRS versus live rear axle

Sure, the 1st gen is lighter, but the FC is just a better package overall.

The FC 13B engines were basically bulletproof versus anything that came in a 1st gen.
Mazda really worked out the kinks out of the 13B with the FC engines.
