Can someone with an intact skylight tell me if >they can drive at freeway speeds with the skylight open without it >rattling? ********************************** I put a lot of freeway/highway miles on every year going to shows. I found last year while driving my Westy that I wouldn't recommend having the skylight open while driving down the highway. It will rattle no matter what, even with fresh, new parts and the thing is prone cracking anyway.

When I want fresh air, I open all the dash vents and the middle side windows. I mean, that's what they're there for, right? If not, turn your AC on. Don't have AC? Oh Well ;-)
