Dave I was hoping nobody was going to ask that. I got tired of not being able to use my sunroof since it kept jamming and proceeded to completely take it out along with all the hardware and clean/lube everything (which I did). I reinstalled everything but didnt have quite enought time to put the screws back in to mount it but it fit pretty snugly closed so I didnt worry about it and was planning on finishing the next day.
It seemed pretty secure and my girlfriend wanted to use it for a short trip...bad idea. She was driving on the NJ turnpike and decided to close the windows which created a pressure imbalance(14.7psi inside and apparently significantly less on the outside-The Bernoulli principle) and it popped off at 65 mph and by the time we recovered it had been mangled by oncoming traffic. It obviously could have been a lot worse. I am thinking the chances of matching the color (metallic grey) is pretty low but for the time being I am just going to buy whatever fits and worry about it later. As far as you know the curvature didnt change over the years and a '84 should fit my '90?
