The Hummer I am getting (H3) has a power roof, but did that come like that from the factory? I heard the dealer say that they sometimes use another company to actually install the sunroof. How common is this?

ask the dealer where it was installed or look at the window sticker
|
Send me the VIN # and I can tell you if it is on the Factory Build Sheet.

BULL

Not sure what the "BULL" is about but here is the build sheet for my H3 with the sunroof.
Yours should have Option code CF5 if it is a factory sunroof.

Is it normal for it to be installed by another place, and not from the factory on new H3's?
|
I have yet to hear of an aftermarket sunroof on an H3. On an H2 yes, but not anything newer then maybe '04 that I have seen.

sunroofs were (are ? ) on restriction not many base or adventure has them ramp hummer on li ny is putting in aftermarket sunroofs that cost more than factory
|
We couldn't find a green Adventure with a sunroof at any So CA dealer. We were offered but passed on a local sunroof install; didn't want to be on the steep part of the learning curve.
|
I live in Coloraado and my H3 did not come with the sunroof. The sunroof was installed prior to me picking up the vehicle. I am dissapointed that it is smaller than the factory installed version. It works great but it's about 2" smaller than the factory version.
|
do you have pic of inside to see how they did customizing headliner also did they leave 2 inches of groved roof on the outside
|
If your paste this URL into your browser and then replace the VIN # with yours it will pull a copy of the window sticker for you. Works with only a few exceptiions.

The stock roof is huge, but if had my choice I'd get a Webasto panoramic or a huge cloth top.

My saying with an aftermarket installed sunroof is: caveat emptor.
Problem with non-factory installed sunroofs is warranty. The selling dealer should honor the sunroof warranty for the same time span as the rest of the vehicle; however, if you are traveling and the sunroof fails, another dealer does NOT have to honor the warranty on the sunroof. In addition, another dealer may not be able to obtain parts to even repair, at your cost, the non-factory sunroof. Yes, the selling dealer will most likely reimburse you for any repair, but again, will parts be available. I, personally, had an experience with a non-factory sunroof installed in MI, but failing in FL. Was not pretty driving back with a plastic garbage bag taped to the roof. The sunroof guide had broken and jammed, even preventing manual closure. Let me also add that a sunroof designed and installed at the factory has been roll tested for crash worthiness. Aftermarket installed sunroofs MAY weaken the roof structure or in the case of a panoramic sunroof, a roof cross member might be removed. I say might and may, since some suppliers (such as Wabasto installed by their own trained installers) will most likely not weaken or damage anything. I would be more worried about the local sunroof shop and Billy-bob with a reciprocating saw. |

In Cal its illegal to cover the VIN. Not worth a parking ticket..er..revenue enhancement stream
