And also you won't be able to fit a sun roof in tin top because they have two stripes things in the roof

well as long as i can get hold of a sunroof that is flat (not curved for a car with a curved roof) then im sure i could make one fit even if it means building a frome of some sort and altering the roof a little so that the two dips fade out to the sunroof like they do at each end of the standard roof..

im sure it could be dont just need to put a bit of work into it..

Mine has a sunroof from the factory and it's a tin top. Nothing special. It's just a hole the right shape cut into the normal roof and then glued in from the outside and then a flange thing on the inside screwed to it clamping it down.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.
