    disco sun roof

    I came across a guy who scored a brand new "still in the box" sunroof from the previose disco.
    He is willing to part with it for next to nothing.
    Would it be compatible with a defender and worth looking to install?
    Thanks

    I've had sunroofs in my last 3 cars (2 classic Range rovers and a BMW 323i) and absolutely love them. If the drain tubes are kept clear leakage is not a problem. Could not tell you though whether the discovery sunroof would fit the defender. i'm just trying to picture the roofline of the defender- wouldn't a sunroof end up catching too much airflow due to the slope of the roof at the front?

    no it wont fit without alot of work, and sillicon. The disco roofs are curved, defender roofs are flat. We used to have a defender with a factory fitted popup sunroof.
