Funny you bring it up....my buddy just did this about a month ago and he is regretting it every day! He has wind noise,rattling,closing/opening issues as well as 2 cracked sunroof glass,yuk! Mind you this was done professionally! I personally would stay away from the headache but to each their own!

It IS possible, but I would not do it on my own car!
