Okey i bought my car with a broken sunroof a 93 Se hatch. The problem is the sun roof I have bought doesnt fit it is too big for some reason. Also I compared this sunroof I bought to other s13 and its the same freakn size. So I am asking do they make a diffrent models of sunroof for this car or this car I have bought is just a custom made. Also is it worth it to buy a custom one or spot weld a metal sheet to solve this freakn problem. It really sucks driving around on a car with a duct taped plastic for a roof and raining.

dude, that sucks. I've been there. I bought mine with a shattered roof, and what I ended up doing was sending the dimensions of mine to a junkyard to make sure I got the right roof, and having one shipped from a yard in indiana. As far as I know, all the S13 sunroofs were the same from the factory, but who knows, there could be differences. Also, it could be either dealer installed or some aftermarket one.
Pictures of your sun roof might help us id it...
