ABSTRACT:
A sliding roof construction for a vehicle comprising a transparent slide roof member movable forwardly and rearwardly to close and open an opening provided in the roof of the vehicle and a sunshade slidably mounted beneath the transparent slide roof member for selectively covering the slide roof member. A guide rail is mounted on the roof of the vehicle for slidably supporting the slide roof member and the guide rail has first and second guide grooves extending substantially parallel to one another. One of the guide grooves slidably supports slider members respectively mounted on the slide roof member and sunshade in front to back relation such that when the slide roof member is opened, the sunshade is opened therewith, whereas when the slide roof member is closed, the sunshade can selectively cover and uncover the closed slide roof member. The other guide groove slidably supports a stay on the slide roof member which can be used to drive the slide roof member in its opening and closing movements.
