The Clazzio seat covers are awesome. They add a layer of padding that really makes the seats more comfortable. Combine them with the moon roof, and I feel like I'm driving a mini Lexus.

The net (moon roof assembly - piece of sheet metal removed) is just over 30 lbs.

Webasto warranty:
Hollandia 700 Series Inbuilt Sunroofs offer a lifetime parts warranty to the
original owner.

Installer contract terms say "Labor is warrantied for life".

Does the roof lose any structural bracing that went across?

Looks super good, I want one.

there shouldn't be, I don't think the roof "skin" is strong enough, and there are a few crossmembers inside. Removing one of those would cause trouble for sure, but it looks like the moonroof fits right between the two front ones, as if Toyota had considered the possibility and spaced them out a bit more

There's definitely less roof flex with moon roofs frame. They were initally going to install the Webasto 4300, but they had to go with the slightly shorter Hollandia 730 due to the position of the roof reinforcement member in diagram.

That's actually correct - I checked with the installer and they did cut the roof support and bolt the sunroof frame to it.
