Post Driving around topless in the rain.

Well I pulled it off and I coundn't get it back on. I had to drive to work topless. I hope it doesn't rain again.
Has anyone had any luck putting the cable from the sunroof into the plactic part that moves the sunroof? I plan on going to Porsche at lunch to buy the Plastic part for both sides. Both broke on me, I hope it goes back together.

Thanks if anyone can put in there 2 cents.

PS Can Anyone recomend a good lubricant?

Brittany -

Check the archives - there was a BIG THREAD on the sunroof in the last few weeks...
(PLEASE - don't tease us with that 'topless' thing...and then go as far as asking about lubricants!)

Hey BD -

Where did you get the emoticans?. I think I know where LOL :-)

Brittany -

As far as a lubricant - You need something that won't run off. I used some left over CV Bearing Grease. Autozone, or anything similar, sells axle grease/bearing grease in tubes and in tubs - inexspensive.

Don't use your bare hands to apply - Use latex gloves -

Good Luck - and Big Dave is right, a visual on your issue could help us help you.

Thanks and Good Luck -

PS - So when are you going to post a picture of yourself?. I'll tell you what, you do you and I'll do me - Sounds Fair?.

(Insert typical suburban household living room here)

[Music from father knows best plays in background]

[Doorbell rings, and Mrs. Li answers the door and sees Brittany and Drewster]

Dialogue:

Brittany: Mom, this is Drewster, we met on the Rennlist boards when I posted double entendre postings about being topless!

Mom: How sweet dear! Drewster, you look like such a nice boy

Drewster: Wow, your Brittany's mom? Wow, I thought you were her SISTER!

Mom: Oh, what a sweet boy, here's $300--go out and buy a new belly pan for Brittany and install them together. I'll make some lemonade.

[Fade to commercial with music]

Love, Rennlist style. ; )

Brit,

I used Redline wheel bearing grease on the sunrooof and the down side was the smell of the grease was noticable when the sunroof was open on a hot day. I ended up removing that grease and using a silicone type lube. I will renew it each spring.

Anyway PORSCHE told me $50.oo each... $100.00 a pair for the cables and the plastic ends All I need is the plastic end part. I will disasemble and see if I can make somthing to fit.

P.S. Hey Drew, mom will be out all night playing bingo come on over... Bring your tools... Check, make sure you have fresh batterys. He He!! Brittany

I'm still surprised no one has made any comments about recommending a good lubricant...

Check your email addy, I just sent you an email. I can help out with the parts you need, for a cheaper price than what your looking at.
