"Q: my car does not have an anti lock braking system - i am interested in an abs light for my dash - i cannot afford nor am i interested in the actual braking benefits of an abs system - i am solely interested in tricking people into thinking my car is safer than it is. do you or are you looking into prototyping this product - it seems like its up your alley.

A: We are working on new ideas, thank you."
-
That's pretty funny. ;D

Q: Do I get a discount in shipping if I buy 2? I want to put one on the roof and one on the inside of my car so when I look up a can pretend to be looking outside, also can you make one that simulates looking up at the stars I think chicks would really dig it or put a scary face on it so when People in my car look up the think there is somebody on the roof I think you have endless possibilities with this product. Thanks. Aug-17-07
A: We give free shipping when you buy 3 or more.
:laugh2:
Oh so funny.....

Q: I don't understand why someone would want the look without the functionality? Is this a gag to fool your friends?
A: We came with this idea, sometimes people just want to have the look of a sunroof, and canīt afford or donīt have the permission to make a hole to their/parentīs car.
I'm fairly certain if your parents don't want a hole in their car, they don't want a giant fake sticker on the top of it, either.
Q: Will this work with my convertible?
Mmmmmmmmmmmm!!! That's good sarcasm! Even funnier that the guy responds. It's also actually quite sad that he responds to all questions, even though it's painfully obvious that the person querying is being a smartass.
I'm also amazed how many sellers aren't familiar with spellcheck.

Sometimes, I'm ashamed to be an American.
Pretty damn funny though.
-
Are you sure that guy was American? You could pick up the accent in his typing.
-
...and the tip off might be the semi-middle eastern looking gentleman in the photos?
-
Item was in Beaumont, TX.
Middle Eastern Americans are Americans too, afaik
Although this might be a ploy to generate huge amounts of cash for Al Qaeda.

I wasn't aware. :dunno

that is pure gold! people sure had fun on the Q & A!
Q: Can this be put on other parts of the car, such as the hood or trunk lid, or do you have to put it on the roof? Does it fit all models? I have a Dodge Stratus right now, but I'm probably gonna get a Dodge Viper pretty soon.
;D

A: The sunroof will also fit the Dodge Viper. However, we are developing a new product we call the Viper "Slipcover" which will allow you to appear to be driving a Dodge Viper without the wasteful expense of owning the real thing.

ROTFL!!!

That's just where the warehouse is - we'll need to see a green card or social security card before we accept him as being American...

Hmmm..... which product came first?

It was for a "stick on" sunroof. It didn't look incredibly bad, it was just incredibly cheesy - you know, like plastic walmart rim spinners.
People went nuts with the questions on there, and the guy actually answered alot of them in a civilized way.
-
Here are some pictures. Same guy.

Buy four and put one on the side of each door.

Yep.
I want to get a bunch of them and start sticking them all over the place. On my car, my front door, the mailbox. the fridge... just to see if people start trying to stick quarters in.

Stick one on your shirt along with a sign that says "product dispensed below". ;D
