    Yes - they were aftermarket though, IIRC. they pop up once in a while, but are usually pretty expensive.

      not necessarily aftermarket... the units sold at the parts counter were genuine BMW and were a dealer installed option, with a genuine part number.

      for the sunroof-delete 318i/is cars, where folks really had to have a sunroof installed, a body shop would install an aftermarket glass unit; the panel being of similar dimensions to a sunroof-equipped e30, but not the same. the ones i've seen, were either made by Saint-Gobain or Webasto, which both quality manufacturers.

      here's a NOS unit i sold a few years ago, which was purchased new from the parts counter at Kuni BMW, in the late 80s:
      '70 911s | '72 2002 | '88 M5 | '89 330is | '89 M3 | '95 911 | '02 M5 | '04 RR HSE
