Well I can't knock a guy for thinking he would like a sunroof but when the guys said that is "so 1980's " here is mine since removed and filled in 1982.
At one time after I decided to stretch my cab I bought the complete roof with sliding sunroof off an 80 Cutlass but that is headed out in the next scrap load.
Admittedly mine was kind of cool but I don't think that it vented enough air when open to compensate for the heat that it generated inside the truck.

Still on our trucks I think they need to go with some of the other70's and 80's stuff like wheels that stuck outside the fenders and chrome side pipes.
