Default Panoramic roof

Question about the roof. When you lift the hatch, where is the "break" in the glass? From the pictures I can't really tell how the glass works in conjunction with lifting the hatch.

I hope this helps.....



if not... it was fun to make anyways :p

*edit* if you copy, paste into paint, and zoom, the lines get a little bit clearer and reveal the breaks in the panels a lot better.

I have noticed several hatchbacks with moon roofs and there is only 10-12 inches of sheet metal between the two. Think it is neat that Scion just decided to make the whole thing glass. Breakage might be another story and is like what happens to the tC if it gets hit by a SUV. Well, logic would indicate the tC would probably be totaled. But I will go by the odds saying that I won't be in an accident, hopefully!!!
