    I just went to a local Webasto installer and he quoted $1200 out the door for installation of a Hollandia 730. He said that I'd have to either remove or re mount my roof basket back a bit to clear the tilt function.
    I don't know. $1200 for a sunroof is a bit steep for me. Right now I'd rather do a 5 speed swap for that amount.

    I almost bought a manual pop-up a while back just because i would be fun for the trails. I figured I could run it for a while and eventually upgrade to the expensive Webasto. I don't mind a manual sunroof but I'm just worried it might leak.

    So I was looking through your gallery and found this pic. Is the clearance issue related to your basket or your fairing? It sure looks like you'd have a hard time hitting the basket, but I could definitely see where your fairing would be in the way.

    Hi, no, that basket was sold a long time ago.
    I now have the stock rack with a Rage basket.
