Thats gotta be a type-o or some serious body work was done to pull it off. MK4 sunroofs are huge compared to our puny little Corrado roofs...

Whatever it's from, you can see in the pics that it doesn't fit correctly:

and then there's this.... "Also the stock metal sunroof was replaced with a glass moonroof from a 1999 VW Jetta GLX. The roof doesn't leak like the factory sunroof"...
Yea right.

I have read about putting the glass top sunroofs from a 96 Passat and installing it in a '92 Corrado SLC. Here is a link: http://www.corrado-club.com Click on the menu on the left hand side . Go to Corrado Info/ Click on FAQ's & Tech Tips. Scroll down to Common- Interior section, and the retro fit should is on that list.

I have seen the new sunroofs and they are totally different. They even use a dial to operate them..

I just bought a corrado with a moonroof from 93 passart, and have the same problem (does not fit exactly at the front side). Anyway to fix this? Wind noise is loud due to poor aerodynamics, and not to mention the silly look.

Loosen the screws that hold te glass in and spend some hours fitting it right, mine is flawless nad out of a 98 passat I believe.

1999 jetta is a gen 4 except the wolfsburg edition which still had the gen 3 body if i am not mistaken...

Ask kmveedub if the MKIV Jetta sunroof works. He will no doubt give you a resounding: NO!
