i have an issue with the sunroof. apparently i'm taller than the designers expected, and my head hits the roof with the seat up where i like it and wearing my autocross helmet is downright ugly in there.

as far as i could tell, gt's are really hard to find without sunroofs.

has anyone ever had a bodyshop weld a panel in it's place? i don't even care if it looks that great, but i could really use that extra inch of headroom.

I'm 6'3" and I have no issues with the sunroof. o0black0o is taller than me by a couple of inches or more and he doesn't have any issues either. If you are that tall you should be able to see with your seat reclined one more notch. That would give you the inch or so you desire without sacrificing luxury or looks.
