Yes, as has been said, you can drill holes in your body and mount it under there but who wants to do that to their newly painted shell?
i also read somewhere that another option was to leave an unpainted square on your roof (so it looks like an open top or a clear glass sunroof) but as you say BRCA rulings would make this awkward, after all the BRCA rules say the car must be painted apart from the more usual windows - the only other thing you can leave unpainted is a wing. I suppose you could mask out a sunroof & use that special tinting paint that you can use to turn clear windows into tinted windows (but wouldn't be allowed on the windows themselves at a BRCA event), this would get past the "shells must be painted" rule as you have applied paint to the roof, but this seems a bit of a faff plus if 1 track on the BRCA nationals used Ilaps it would put a real spanner in the works with regards the regulations, plus again it would impede the light.
