Abstract
A vehicle body sunroof assembly (30) for a roof opening (56) includes a sunroof (64) having a plurality of panels (66) that extend between upper edges of vehicle side doors (24) with a door-to-door construction. The sunfoor (64) also includes a flexible sheet-like cover (70) having connection (72) to the sunroof panels (66). The cover connections (72) to the panels (66) are spaced such that the cover is movable between a closed position where the panels are spaced from each other and an open position where the panels are positioned adjacent the rear edge of the roof opening in a partially overlapping relationship with the cover (70) stored therebetween in a folded condition.
