What size it the sunroof? The HB929 sunroof is 470mm X 890mm and slightly convex toward the front. Oh yeah it's tinted glass

No rust here
Must take 14 years to develop rust in sunroof. Though my car has spent a lot of its life in some country town where rain does not exist 350 days of the year. Place called Muckinboodindarundurupnsville or something... you can tell I'm a city boy cause I can't pronounce the name. Guess if it had been living near the ocean or in damper environment rust would have shown. Heh, mazda make a good car body, no rust anywhere that I can see. Red dust under all the carpets, door trims in the cup holders.. no wait Mazda didn't make cup holders... I take it back that they make good cars. :lol:
