(turns out the car was hit by lightning :-O)
SO, unless i can make my modifications and remove them without permanently altering the car, i tend to find other options. ALSO, it tried pulling the sunroof panel and it would NOT come out without more pressure than i felt it could handle without damaging something. i did try pretty hard before giving up, but this method provides for a clean, removable installation with little to no risk of accidental damage.
Thanks for the info! I will be checking back in on this thread when I hopefully get my car (looking like 1st half of '09 now). Wedding later this year, blah blah.
