FYI, he mentioned that he found out there is no way to put the roof panel INSIDE a smart car. the dimensions are just too big, no matter where or what angle you try. this was discovered when his smart was flat-bedded back to smart center of indianapolis after the roof chose to separate itself from the car.
kind of ruined his vacation he had just started.

I obviously thought you were referring to the issue with the few panorama roofs that had to be replaced. Which, in fact, is a separate topic from the sunshade problem. But then again, I'm not mensa material.
