So I have a spare K5 roof - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

it's gloss-coated [like the one already on my K5], has privacy glass [also like my K5], and it even has that aluminum spoiler thing, which my K5 doesn't have [though one end of it hooked a tree branch years ago and kinda bent it]

I was thinking of selling the windows, or at least keeping them incase one of mine gets broken out, and cutting out that recessed square part that;s inside the roof up at the top.....basically making an open top. then getting some marine sharkskin and a bunch of snaps to keep it sealed up.

Thing is, I love the solid roof in the winter time. Hardly any road noise and it keeps all the heat in and even amazingly doesn't fog up.

Worth it or no?
