Default question about the moonroof...

do both moonroofs open? or just the main one in the front?

Also, are they powered? Or do you have to slide them manually?

What decade are you living in? Do any companies make MANUAL sliding roofs these days?

Arent the covers for the back moonroof manual? Like the ones that block light getting in?

The cover for the front and back are both manual, think like a windowshade.

The front roof slides--it actually has 5 positions it can be in, while still being useful--and the back panel is just a panel. It doesn't move.

I'm extremely happy with my panoramic, and I'm glad Scion didn't motorize both. The new Pontiac has an accordian-fold sunroof, and it looks retarded when it's retracted.

I have the FM color and it is amazing to show people the all glass roof. They can't believe it. Glass blends in with the FM. I am sure the white really offsets the glass. Both look pretty awesome to me. But I like how the back does not open but let's in light so if someone is reading and wants the "glow", they can have it.....

Whoa buddy! CF instead of all glass? I can't picture that so i can't really say whether i think it'd look good or not. All i know is that i really like my all glass top. I bought a squeeji to suck the water off when i wash it... much easier (and more fun) than the damn shammy cloth. I only use it for the front winshield, roof, and rear windshield though... wouldn't wanna scratch anything!
