its welded fella....... use a grinder to chop the sunroof cartridge out, then on the roof skin you need to knock the lip around the sunroof upwards to make a nice sitting place for your 20 gauge tin. Weld in place, skim over with bridge filler This will not crack if done properly and bobs your uncle
