Default 95 avenger with sunroof

Not a common question to ask on a forum, but heres the situation. finally bought the 95 talon tsi for the parts car and about to start the swap this sprong. all i have left to do is get the avenger. since this is going to be my long term project car im being picky with it. ive been searching for a 95 avenger with a sunroof, and i finally found one. however, it is a manual sunroof. my question is did 95s comine with power sunroofs? or was that option not added until a later year. if not, is it possible to get the aftermarket manual sunroof converterd to a power sunroof? and if its done by a good shop , does it still have good chances of leaking? any knowledge on this topic would be very much appreciated asap.

thanks, Paul

They never offered it as a manual ... If there is a black metal frame around it , it's aftermrket ... A good powered sunroof alone will set you back around $300/$400 just for the frame , A shop would hit you for $100/$150 labor ... And there is a better then 75% chance it will leak in the next few years

You'd have to cut the roof and frame out , then cut the roof out of your car then weld in the sunken roof and seal , run wire to the power roof ect , I'd say it could be done but would be very very difficult with the proper install and not warping the roof with heat welding it in
