Beware if you are tempted to weld in a replacement section as it will ripple plus with the roof being a compound curve it will be horrendous to match up.
If you are a competent welder and fabricator then give it a go but i would be tempted to either cut a section from another roof or replace the whole thing.

Id find another roof without a sunroof and cut the section out, then trim it an inch wider each side.
If your not careful cutting it out though it will go into all shapes. It will also still need several hours of filler work by a competant bodyworker.

just replace the whole roof panel ,it would take an enormous amount of fabrication tallent to make it right with a welding job.
