Car windows, back glass and sunroofs: questions and answers
Side glass, back glass, sunroofs and moonroofs — what breaks, what is replaced, and how it works.
- What is the difference between a sunroof and a moonroof?
A sunroof is an opaque panel that tilts or slides; a moonroof is a glass panel. Learn the difference and when the glass needs replacing.
- What is a panoramic sunroof?
A panoramic sunroof is a large glass panel spanning much of the roof over both rows of seats. Some open; others are fixed. Cracked glass is replaced.
- What is a window regulator?
A window regulator is the mechanism inside a door that carries the glass up and down. Manual types use a crank; power types pair a motor with a linkage.
