I sent Toyota an email and here was there response:

That would have been an expected response if they don't offer it as a stock part. They won't recommend or suggest any product they don't offer stock since there could be liability issues there. I have personally seen quite a few little Yari running around with sunroofs, and they all look REALLY nice. I have been battling with myself for the last year about getting one myself ... I am just doing some research. Almost all of the sunroofs have long warranties (5 years +) and most places that install them also offer some kind of warranty. I think if you decide to get one, it will be fine. As long as you're OK with it leaking someday (because it will ... sooner or later .... lol) I say go for it!
