Hi we are new members (17 year old daughter just bought her first Seicento) does anyone know about whether the fixings on other Fiat electric cloth sunroofs are compatible? Or can the sunroof be converted to a manual one?

It doesn't need to be -in the event of motor/wiring fault the sunroof can be operated by removing the panel & inserting the key to manually operate the webasto (owners manual page 44 or https://www.scribd.com/doc/61300389/Seicento-Owners-Manual#scribd) .... & No, i don't know what the key looks like. You'll have to find or make something that will do the job. I don't think anybody has got a key unless they bought the car from new.
Besides the eper link varescrazy supplied there is also a Seicento Workshop Manual you can download from this site.

If you're talking about the motor then i can't guarantee it 100%.... but in all probability -YES
The Sei uses a Webasto C-126 motor - the same as those fitted to a Mk2 Punto & various other fiats BUT you'll need to check for yourself if they are identical & can be swopped over.
(damn spell checker- swopped is the correct form! swap is thought to have originally meant a sword blow).
