putting a EX sunroof in a 2002 LX
Hey everyone, my G/f has a 2002 civic and she wants to put a sunroof in it. Im assuming that the EX sunroof would fit but you guys got any clue how much parts and labor would be for something like that.
Shes already tried to turn it in and get the EX but its not going to happen, so she wants to put a sunroof in her LX 4 door, lemme know.
Thanks.

If your really serious, have one of them tint/sunroof shops put it for you. It' won't be factory Honda stuff, but then again it won't cost you a fortune like the way your talking about doing it. Just my .02 cents.

What's the problem with trading the car in for an EX? That's your best bet. Anything put in may be prone to leaking and will not be covered under a factory warranty. My strong suggestion is to do what you can to trade the car in for an EX.
But if that is completely out of the question look for a place that installs sunroofs...I think the roof is welded onto the body of the car for structural reinforcement.
Also, you can look into have a sliding canvas roof put in.

stock moon roofs have drain pipes that run from the moonroof to the sides of the car. no aftermarket moonroof place puts that stuff in.
i would def. just buy a car with a moonroof if I HAD to have it.
