To that end, make sure whomever does your swap that they use the correct epoxy or the outer finish paint might bubble.

I would get the epoxy from GM just to play it safe. I guess all you'll be epoxying is the sail panel and I bet that is much easier than installing the whole HT.
You will have to remove the roof liner, obviously. Cut the old epoxy to liberate the HT (dremmel?). It's not that difficult of a job I imagine.
