    Hi :)
    Was an outside spotlight an option on 76 full size cars like my Electra, and if so, how should it look like.
    I also wonder about, if there was a sunroof option on 4dr Electras, if so, could you have the combination with sunroof and vinyl roof.
    Anybody who knows?

    Per,
    the only thing I could find was in the '76 Buick Accessories catalog (almost 100% sure you have that catalog as well :laugh: ) , but that is an handheld spotlight

    They're not mentioned in the Color & Trim album nor in the '76 dealer catalog

    According to the '76 Color & Trim album the combination of a vinyl top and a sunroof were available:

    Hi
    Yes, I have the accessory manual. :TU: :laugh:
    It looks like you only could get sunroof on the coupes. :(

    I dont think so; I think they used Le Sabres as police cars.

    I saw this a day or so ago on eBay, it is a coupe that has a sunroof.

    I have only seen an electra coupe with the glass sliding roof in books.

    I had thought that the moonroof/sunroof options were only available on c-body coupes, but a few months back I saw a 76 sedan deville with a moonroof, never seen an 74-76 electra 4 door with a moonroof...
