Thanks for the info. I know I cannot get a factory installed Navigation
unit in the two lower models of the PT cruiser for 06. The two higher
models have the sunroof in the package. If I could buy it and install it
myself easily that would be fine. I was kinda hoping for the 180HP engine
though and I cannot get that in the two lower models. So you never heard
even the slightest rattle or squeak coming from the ceiling area where the
mechanism is when you go over bumps? I mean when the sunroof is closed.

Thanks.
