Default WTB: Manual Sunroof Latches
My power sunroof has been problematic since buying the car, so I figured its time to rid the car of that problem with the added bonus of saving weight. Does anyone have a manual latch set they're willing to part with?

They're hard to find! I wish i had posted this thread sooner. Perhaps it should be a sticky for buying and selling manual sunroof latches.

I agree, I need some bad. I may go with the 944online $250 set.....But I prefer a used set, if I can find them.

The same set I posted yesterday is still on eBay? Beats the hell out of $250.

Yeah I just could not justify spending the $250 myself. Thats why I waited until I found a used set for $60. They are really simple compression latches, has anyone ever checked southco or anyplace like it to see if there would be an easily adaptable substitute?

http://www.southco.com/

They make more than is what on the site, thier pdf catalog offers compression style latches that alot of guys use in replica lambo etc.
