sunroof

after the problems l had with my last car - Skoda Superb estate , l had to have a new headling new carpets when the leak got that bad even my seat heaters switched them selves on 6 months later the problem started again but even worse , this time it wasn't cure because of a rogue of a service manager at the Skoda garage took my car in giving me a car to get me home each time fobbing me off - it ended when after my warranty run out l found out each time l fetched my car he hadn't booked it in - Skoda UK were a waste of time l'd had enough that's why a bought my leon with no sunroof though l do miss one :cry:

I seem to be in a minority but since the advent of climate control have never seen the point of a sunroof....the extra light some mention in cabin not an issue for me. The only time the windows are down is to put the ticket in a multi storey car park machine :) Sunroofs are soooo 1980's Ford Escorts :)

Mine has as the pics obviously show.

It's probably a case of the spec 'accountants' at work again, mine is a Sept/Oct 2013 build delivered end of Nov 2013 it lacked some items the cars earlier than it had, and hasn't got some things the later cars gained.

I expect the grab handles is another such case of the spec being changed.

mine has grab handles but not on the drivers side , was looking to put a sunglass holder in like the one you could get for the mk1

maybe only cars with sunroofs get a drivers handle

what was missing off your later build ?

Any chance to retrofit the handle ? Seems to be plug and play...
