Abstract
A sliding roof includes a light transmitting sliding sunroof and a light isolating sliding sunshade disposed beneath the sunroof. The light transmitting sliding sunroof opens a roof opening only while the light isolating sliding sunshade is in its open position. Also, the light isolating sliding sunshade closes the roof opening only while the light transmission sliding sunroof is in its closed position. Damage to the light isolating sliding sunshade, therefore, is prevented.
