View Full Version : Sunroof Pro's/Con's Thoughts..
SIHHR 10-31-2005, 04:35 PM This is my First car with a Sun roof I must say. I do like the Sunroof. The postion of the button's is a great location. The netting the comes up after the sunroof is in its set postion is a good add. Where the button's are there is a outline of a huge circle. What do you think that could be used for? I'm not too happy with the little white light. I have the Mirror with the compass and I'm more use to reaching up more towards the sunroof button for interior lights then the ones in the actually mirror that came with it.
captain howdy 10-31-2005, 05:19 PM I beleive it is to access the little light for replacement. But I could be wrong.

I checked the manual and I did not see anything in the book about replaceing that little light
adamlowery 11-03-2005, 09:03 AM I want a sunroof the entire length of the roof. Thats definetely custom.

The owners manual is only meant for general operation. To point out your options specific to your vehicle and how to use them. About the only useful info you can find in your manual is replacement recomendations. I don't know if there is a Chiltons manual out yet which would be specific to the assembly and disassembly of your vehicle. I haven't looked for one yet but I recomend one to every car and truck owner. Then there is never any questions about how to take things apart and more importantly (at least for myself ) how to put things back together once you have them apart.
SIHHR 11-03-2005, 01:11 PM I agree

hhrrussell 11-04-2005, 06:25 PM i believe that circle is for the onstar speaker, do u have onstar? i dont ,. no need for it and to expensive. have my cell phone with me that is as good as the on star. i really believe the onstar is a waste of money, i think you have to be in your car a lot to make it worth while.

I thought Onstar is built into the rear view mirror. Maybe thats just the Onstar button on the mirror. I agree about Onstar not being worth it.
SIHHR 11-04-2005, 10:15 PM I did not get the Onstar. But I got the mirror with the Compass.

Close, it's the OnStar MICROPHONE.
NateZillaHHR 02-21-2007, 01:46 AM the only logical thing i can think of for the white light by the sun roof is that it lights up the space where the e brake and stuff are...just a little so you dont have to turn on your interior lights to see stuff when you dont have to...dunno if it helps and i hope i explained it clearly

That's where the On Star microphone is located with On Star equipped HHR's.
The little white light allows you to see the window switches and can be easily changed.

Dude, I urge you to rethink your opinion. Your cell phone does you NO GOOD when you are unconsious after an accident. Your cell phone won't find your car when it is stolen. Your cell phone doesn't always have a signal, try calling for help when you cell phone is out of range or the battery is dead.
Of course, you may never need On Star, and I hope you don't, but when you do, you won't think it's " too expensive". That's cave man thinking ( or you've never been in an accident ).
On Star gives you directions when you are lost, phones the nearest hotel when you are tired, gives you your location when you ask and most important, On Star will give you a read out of your engine specs and email you each month with your oil change info, engine info, and if anything is wrong, will tell you.
At any time, you can call On Star and they will run a diagnostic check for you on the spot. When that "service engine" light comes on, who you gonna call with your cell phone?
On Star is too expensive?? Please.
Black Beauty 02-21-2007, 07:04 AM Seems like that on-star does everything. Probably can track your speed also.
Someday you may get a citation, and you won`t be able to contest it.
It`s gonna remind you to change the oil too.:D
