Hummerdogg is right. I have the exact same one. As long as you're aware it's aftermarket and don't care....then it doesn't matter. With mine....I didn't realize until after the purchase. I have a small rattle right above my head...coming from the sunroof frame...I hit it a couple of times and it goes away. My headliner is a little unlevel above the passenger seats (don't notice unless looking from the rear of vehicle. The sunvisor clips (in the headliner) were loose...got them replaced under warranty . With the window closed, the slider is pretty loose...so will move with stopping or going.. Check the door seals/molding...mine were sagging and I had it fixed under warranty. I can't have my sunroof partially open bcs it rattles like crazy. It has to be on full tilt or fully opened or closed. Looks like the overhead console is done better than mine...as far as the front piece next to the window goes....the area right above the console (front edge of sunroof)..mine didn't seem as crooked. That's about it. Haven't had any problems with the roof....I'm just a perfectionist and it pissed me off when I started noticing the irregularities...Just know that the dealer will NOT touch the roof if you ever have a problem. And the original roof warranty doesn't transfer to you...And as far as aftermarket warranties...when I looked, it didn't cover the aftermarket sunroof. Another concern...If you go with a GOBI rack...will it match up correctly?

Lastly...if you ever loose power from the battery - to reset the roof, pull the fuse (should be located in the vicinity of the other fuses), put it back in...cycle the roof full open and then close. That will reset the one-touch features.

If you ever have any issues with the headliner...make sure the dealer doesn't try and pull the whole thing down to replace. My brother has an 04 cherokee...the aftermarket sunroof was done so well that the dealer didn't even notice. Unfortunately the liner was sagging in the back, so the dealer decided to replace the whole thing....After about a week and trying to figure everything out...they had to send it to an upholsterer to re-cut a new opening...You can now tell that he has an aftermarket roof....
