As for the sunroof vents, I think you should be able to cut that and do it yourself, what I want to know is how to remove the sunroof visor ALTOGETHER from the interior without having to pull out the entire headliner
I have stripped my parts car last year so I have some pics of the sunroof unit out of the car I can load up.

as stated above, I do believe it will be too big. I'd need to find exact measurements.

having sunroof vents is not a good idea on any car. sunroofs are never 100% airtight (especially on our SCs) so you will rise cabin noise and you weaken the airtightness even more. i would NOT suggest to cut these vents out.

the sunshades really are helpful especially if you have a four door and there should be manual ones on the door. thats one of my favorite things on the audi. and the vent really helps too if you have tinted windows because the car can still vent without the sunlight coming in

Not to steal your thread... But they do have a rear winshield wiper on some of the soarers here in Okinawa, so I know you can get them... I guess just a matter of how much you're willing to do to get them THERE....
Again, sorry!
