I've heard of replacing the sunroof with a carbon fiber insert for weight reduction, then I guess you could return the sunroof when selling?

Never a NA 996. I have seen the 996 Turbo without a sunroof. On the options list, there is no option for a sun roof delete, while there is one for the turbo.
Chad - I don't blame you! I am surprised you lasted this long on the DARK SIDE!
Just the fact that you are inquiring about a sunroof delete tells me yoooooour baaaaaack!!!!
Yea, as others have said they do exist, I tried to locate one for a customer once......called at least 200 porsche dealers on top of searching the net and looking into wholesale connections I have..

I'm now wishing I had a sunroof delete, though I'm not changing cars. I wonder what the difficulty is in selling one later, even thouugh you're looking for one. I've heard of replacing the sunroof with a carbon fiber insert for weight reduction, then I guess you could return the sunroof when selling?
I'm not sure, but I think Kelly Moss Motorsports in Madison Wisconsin [phone removed] could do it. I believe they still make a complete carbon fiber body too.
What is the advantage in having the sunroof delete. I would think it would make the car lighter, stiffer, and thus handle better? I rarely use my sunroof.
everything you've described PLUS more headroom for the tall guys, especially with helmets.
removing weight from high up will do more good than down low. this will effectively lower the center of gravity giving you better handling. not sure how much extra weight is up there though, 20lbs?
