Xc 90 Rear sunroof/skyroof

Post by Tiny Tim 077 »

Gooday all

At the rear of my XC 90 on the roof is a blacked out panel that I am assuming is a rear sunroof\skyroof. In South Africa all the XC 90 panels are blacked out so I again assume that this is not an option available here. Does any one actually have this rear sunroof/skyroof or know anything about this. I would love to see some pics of one.

Thank you

That panel carries antennae (at least on 2003-2006) and was left unpainted so the antennae on the underside of that panel (actually plastic circuit film antennae on a plastic panel screwed below the outside roof panel) can receive signals with no metallic primer and paint interference.

Hey there

Thank you so much for the response.....I have been wondering for ages about this and almost felt cheated thinking we did not get it as an option here in SA!
