sunroof, moonroof, opening skylight Explanation: Man, this terminology seems to be all over the place. I would first have said "moonroof" because that seems to be the automotive term for a glass panel in the roof. Unless you installed it yourself, they ALL seem to tilt/open nowadays. However, I have seen 'skylight' for RVs. Here are some links, and goog luck finding a standard term. Reference: http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/1311...
