Sunroof

[pottsnpanz]

Anybody have tips on installing a sunroof or links to good videos? Checked youtube but couldn't really find anything. Im having trouble putting the film on the glass without touching the sides. The glass is about 2 inches bigger than the opening for the film to fit through.

Stick it with the roof in vent position

That usually helps! Unless it’s the back part that doesn’t move. I’ll grab those kinda like Frankensteining a back glass, so it’s kinda taco’d in the middle. Then lay the outsides up into the roof, letting the middle hang down until I can slide the outside parts behind that opening. 

Hope I explained that ok?

What vehicle?

You could also try a half reverse roll, if it’s only 2 sides that are going under the opening. Like the trim only gets in your way on the sides, but front to back is not covered or vis versa.

It was an Audi SQ5, 2 windows but all 4 sides need to be tucked. I tried reverse rolling on one window but when I stick one end on the glass, I couldn't get the sides tucked in without the liner rubbing on the glass. I tried tacoing it in which was better but because 4 sides have to go under the opening, I still had atleast one side rubbing on the headliner.

Tape the headliner if its not old then it can touch with no problems...
