W201, possible to retrofit a newer sunroof into an older model?

Search really didn't show anything, unless I used the wrong keywords.

What I would like to know is if it is practically possible, assuming I can get all the parts needed out of a pick-a-part junkyard from a newer W201 with the flip-up sunroof..to retrofit it into an earlier model W201 that has the sliding sunroof only?

The parts are fairly inexpensive, but is it too labor intensive to make the cost/benefit ratio unrealistic? I'm thinking it is not a DIY type of job either.

I really like the flip-up feature on my 300CE and miss it on my 190D.

Thanks
