IIRC, the cost for that was around $3k, but that was a much smaller roof, and much easier to work on. Plus you can get a factory headliner with no sunroof, so no custom work there. I would love to see this happen, so best of luck in finding a group of guys to take the plunge - I just can't imagine this coming in at any less than $5k...probably more...plus you have to get your car to and from Chicago.

Don't forget that the X5 either M or not have pana roof that's a lot of glass which means a lot of weight. Also don't forget that's top weight and honestly I would think with all the motors and tracks inside you are going to save over 100lb. If we get enough guys to be willing to do it it's not going to be anywhere close to 5k for sure. Some of us might have to ship the car to Chicago hopefully some of those guys are local but once we start this project with IND they will be able to ship the roof to anyone. |

I'm not trying to be rude or rain on you parade, but if you yourself aren't prepared to spend $5-10k once everything is said done (plus possibly be without your car for a month) I might suggest looking at other mods instead.
