Gary, Thanks for your comments.
We initially produced this panel to remove the sunroof for Gravel Rally Cars which are driven at speed on really poor surfaces in English and Welsh Forests and to avoid the cost/complexity of complete roof replacement.
Our experience of bond-in glassfibre panels was quite poor and they tended to show cracks and witness marks after only a couple of events.
We also didn't want a panel that could be pentrated when 'shown the trees'
We have fitted the spot weld in panels to a number of cars now and so far none have shown any cracking of filler or witness marks.
When spot welded correctly the 'tension' of the roof panel is virtually indistinguishable from a non-sun roof panel.
