When I was looking into this a while back, I found these online... they are similar to the VX02's... they are called "speed bumps".

Hell yeah!
Hmm, that's an idea.
It depends on how the first one comes out.
Are you out of your Vulcan mind?

I had a Isuzu Amigo and found a split sunroof that I was able to shoehorn between the outer frame of the roof. It kept the integrity of the roof, but allowed me to have basically a glass top.-ie very little mods required.
As for the VX and a similiar project:
Anyone know of a company that makes very small (separate) sunroofs? ie. 12" x 12"? I'd like to put two in over each seat and have an instrument cluster running inbetween them.

Not sure about "manufactured" separate sunroofs, but, is it possible to cut windshield glass to the proper size to use? (obviously not intended to use as a "movable" piece, only fixed). I just test drove (for fun) a Jeep Commander Limited (Hemi) with one main sunroof and two small "fixed" sunroofs... just thought it was cool as heck!
I remember about 20 years ago, companies like JC Whitney and Pep Boys had symetrical mini sunroof options. But they only manually tilted up and didnt slide back. Not sure about simple removability either. (I know I saw a pair on a mid 80s Cavalier)
They may still be around, but almost seems a waste of time

I had a guy I worked with back when I was an Oldsmobile mechanic that put the top of a Olds Vista Cruiser on his Toyota Land Cruiser. It was a neat add, and since he was a good bodyman it was easy for him to do on the cheap.
If you don't remember or know about the Vista Cruiser here is a link.

Not removable, but might be an option for those wanting to have more view.
FYI ... member Baxman used to have a VX with a powered sunroof installed...a real nice setup Ive seen in person...
It was a retracting fulling opening tinted glass style....
I am thinking also of making the one of my VXs a pick-up...with a soild rear partition and rear glass window...Full internal Roll cage, and a small bed for tools and real sized spare tire (pre-runner stlye)
