That's a unique sunroof mod.

Hope the paint comes out well.

cost me about 800 but thats was for the primer, color,clear hardner, reducer,and some misc measureing cups, tapes, and solvent.

i'm prolly in it another 300 bucks in sand paper, misc hardware

and 70 bucks to have all the glass pulled and replaced



paint is from a local place called johnson paint supply in dickinson TX

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gentex-261-Auto-di...6#ht_500wt_1221

same model but found mine for 50bucks w/ temp sensor.



btw if you get this model i already tested this with a 12 volt powr supply on my bench


pink - +12v (autodim and compass/temp power)
black - ground
light green/black - temp sensor
black/white - temp sensor

OPTIONAL
-----------

yellow - battery(if you get the version with map light)
dark green - side mirror defog (need to pull heater strip out of a chevy suburban/ gm truck)
dark green - side mirror defog
gray - reverse light (will turn off autodim when you backup)

also if you dont have the mounting tab use the metal napa one not the plastic ones from autozone/oriley(they will not hold the mirror secure and it'll vibrate as you drive)

napa part # 730-2023


good luck
