Its not really that hard.  The hardest thing was doing the first cut into the headliner.  After that you gotta put the OHC in cuz if you didn't there would be a giant hole in the headliner.  I love having mine in the truck, except for some reason my temp reads about 5-10 degrees colder than what it should.

Get one from an Expo without a sunroof.  It will have to garage door opener/sunglasses compartment, and will be a little bit smaller and fit tighter to the headliner.

sunroof OHC on left non OHC on right

Here is mine with the lighted Expo visors too.



The wiring isnt to bad at all.  Just have to tap into constant power, switched power, dash lights, dome light, VSS, run two wires to the temp sensor, and a ground.

It will work.  I can get you a non sunroof OHC and send it to you.  They are dime a dozen around here.  I could probably get one to you for around 25 bucks.  You have gray interior right?

Whats your postal code up there?  Ill get a ship quote.
