Default Sunroof issue

Hiya all i need some advice of you guys the sunroof is broken on my Audi 80 b2 and I was wanting to know if there's anything I can do in regards to either buy parts for it or taking one from another car I've been told to just fill it in but then it means buying a new head lining any help at all would be very appreciated

What's the problem with it?

Is it OEM steel or aftermarket glass?

Not sure if this would fit. Looks like it's from a coupe rather than an 80. Might be worth contacting them though.

I’ve got mine in bits at the moment , you could get a universal screen at whatever size was bigger than the original and cut the roof to fit but I think that’d be the last resort.
The sunroof (certainly on the B3) is not difficult to fit or remove. If you can find a car being broken it’d be worthwhile trying that route

All I've got that can be reused is the roof and sliders I'm missing everything else

This states it's for a '92, it's the wrong shape for the earlier coupe IMHO
