Calling the T3 Gods,

Just wondering if there was a change over year for T3 sunroofs? The '71 Square I'm parting out (shameless plug) has a sunroof... would this be kosher to install in an earlier T3? Thanks!

What ever you do save all the sunroof parts! Maybe even the sunroof section on the roof!

I believe there are small differances between early and late. Not sure of when.

I'm not sure about any differences, but I just sold a sunroof panel and all the guts with it off a late Squareback to a guy who was going to use it in an early notch. I never heard from him if it fit or not, though.

DBD, I sent you a PM with my parts request Wink

their is early & late styles... the actual size of the lid & hole stayed the same, but mechanism cables & guides changes happed mid 1965... both will interchange into early & late cars... you just have to use late cables & parts for a late sunroof skin...
