Can it be used with a moon roof?
2055243
We used it on our Mercedes ML320 that has a moon roof that runs the entire length of the roof. We had the bag packed really heavy and had more wind noise due to the weight of the roof bag, but it didn't affect the moon roof itself.

I don't know. We don't have a moon roof. You probably can, but it would cover the moon roof.

it is mounted on the roof, I don't see why it wouldn't work ? Another thing, it's not like it is a great expensive item, I think it's worth a try.

I suppose it is possible but not with the supplied screws and hardware, would have to be done by eliminating one side and attaching the 2 separate cages together with wire, ties or some other strong and durable material, and I'm not sure how you would secure the roof. It seems to me a better choice and one that would be fairly cost effect would be to purchase a double cage of the side/by/side variety and then just not use the center wall rather than trying to save a few bucks and end up with something less stable and more awkward. I wouldn't do it. I've seen those double side by side cages for about $249.00. It is quite possible that the center wall is more cosmetic rather than structural.

I use on my commercial building with a metal roof. You might need a full edge protector so it doesn't scrape the finish on your roof

I haven't tried this on copper, only steel and chrome. It's worked very well on those materials and don't see why it wouldn't work on copper, though doing a roof seems like a huge undertaking.

I used it to side my house with hardie siding and it worked great. I cannot answer regarding roofing.

No, unless the roofing nail has an unusually small head. The head of a 16p nail just barely fits.

I am not sure. Depends on how much snow and how solid your panels are. This device works on a gravity principle, so for areas of your roof without panels am sure it will work great and save you tons of time. . .but, due to the variety of solar panels, tensile strength of materials. . .I would be careful testing it.

YES it will work on a metal roof however you sgould pad and ductape the part that fits over the ridge of the roof so that the metal roofing does not get scraped up.

No you shouldn't use this for roofing. The head of the siding mail is too small.

Yes it will work. The inflatable bumpers will just be closer together. I have a Honda with a glass moon roof and it worked perfectly for my 11 foot sup. short distance and lower speeds are most ideal.

Instructions don't indicate use on a metal roof, but I do. Be careful how you attach it to the metal roof-you don't want any more holes than you already have! (It might work to find a type of hook that can be attached with the same screw that is already in place) I just clipped it on the edges the best I could and drooped it into the guttering. I put mine down about a foot into the down spout. It works for me.

yup. mine has 2 slots on the back that allows you to mount the moon onto them by sliding them down onto the screw head for a secure fit. you could use them on the ceiling.

I don't see why it wouldn't work on a metal roof...Just make sure you never cross the wire over itself. I would run it all the way down the downspout...Check the installation instructions that come with it.

I haven't tried but I see no reason it won't. There is even a video on YouTube of it being used on a barreled tile roof.

The rack doesn't fit if you have the moonroof unless you make modifications. My husband had to use a sawzall to shorten a couple pieces - otherwise it went to tight to the roof and put pressure on the moon roof when it opened. With those pieces shortened, it fits perfectly and we are happy with it. You just have to be relatively handy to install.
