Isnt they why they made two models a low roof hugging one and a slightly higher one to allow such sunroofs to be opened ;)

Its true.
The higher version sits up quite high on the roof though.

The higher one sits about the same height as the rear of mine but then follows the roof line.
Bev Sooty has a lowline one on his motor.
