However, the main talking point is the electric sunroof which the owner has developed himself. He owns a car modification shop where he performs such activities on his own. He cut out a hole in the roof and installed the sunroof. Interestingly, he was aware of the leakage issues that generally come with installing aftermarket sunroofs. To tackle that, he has attached a piping system on the sides of the sunroof which direct the water to the 4 side pillars of the car. He mentions that this setup has been inspired by Cruze which was on sale in India a few years ago.
