Qbert: i do have a sunroof. I've been currious if replacing the glass with polycarbonite or lexan might help with the top heaviness.
It's interesting how the viewpoints on relocating the battery between the Contour forums.. and the Cougar forums differ. The Cougar people say everyone should relocate the battery. The Contour people say not to, but replace it with a lighter battery. I'm not sure the added weight of cable would make relocating the battery that beneficial. Though... if I were to put the battery in the rear-right side of the car, that weight would still be on the same cross weight, but would be in the rear-right (currently least weight) instead of the front-left (currently most weight).
Probably what I'd gain most benefit from would be to loose about 20lbs
