Sunroof slides /pads
Just pulled my sunroof liner out. I'd assume these being worn are the cause of the wear marks on the sunroof cover/liner. They would cause it to sit lower and rub on the surrounding.
The liner material is in tact except for some curling on the back side which I have secured down again.
Anyone find a good match for the vinyl used... Specifically the grain...

Nothing jumps out to me as bad enough damage to necessitate recovering. Looks like you would make out just fine by dyeing the existing material. Considering that this sits overhead and doesn't see light, I would think the scratches would be almost undetectable after a good dye effort.

I am having issues with the sunroof upholstered panel rattling like crazy...the part facing rear also...had a question about those white things I see ....are those supposed to be there to keep the rear of the panel from rattling? I don't remember seeing those when I pulled mine...maybe that's the cause?
Appreciate feedback, thanks.

No, there are three springs up there that are supposed to do that..

Awesome Bill thanks for the tip.
I think I'm going to pull the roof out. The seal needs replaced; the hardware up front to keep the roof from lifting at high speed has been missing for years....Tom and Mark are sending me replacements from their parts cars...
