Sunroof Smashed
I came out from my Muay Thai class last night and my sunroof is completely smashed/spidered. After looking at it closer it looks like it was broken from the inside, pushed up... The glass is still holding together, but totally broken. I know the car was locked and nobody was in it.
My question is where can I get a new sunroof if my Ins. doesn't cover it? Anywhere other than a Honda dealer who will prolly try to rape me? Thanks in advance...

well its a factory moonroof and honda will have to replace it, unless you buy the part and have another shop do it. Either way lots of $$.
I called my insurance and they do cover it, they have to call me back to tell me what my deductable is. I agree going to Honda would be the best idea. I figured out what happened, I remember hearing a rock hit my car yesterday on the highway (off an 18 wheeler most likely) but didn't think to check the sunroof, it was up in the tilted position. I went on the highway today with it closed and half the glass flew up and out so I came home and pulled out the rest and vaccumed it. Thanks for the info guys.

Hah.... the moonroof comes off with only 4 nuts. It's as easy as pie to replace. I take mine out every 6 months to properly clean and lube the mechanism. Have insurance pay for the part and pop it in yourself. It takes 5 minutes. Literally.
Btw, though it's not for sale, I bought a spare moonroof off ebay for $29!!! In the box, just in case.
Or look at the local junkyard. You need a philips screwdriver for the 2 trim pieces and a 10mm socket for the 4 moonroof nuts. 5min job.
