Default Need sunroof part...

One of the plastic receivers along the rear of the sunroof (the edge nearest the hatch... not the bit at the hinged edge, by the windshield) has shattered. -Old age I suppose. -Just to clarify, this is where the retracting motorised 'arms' slip inside the sunroof and raise it.

So now the passenger side is unsecured, and flaps up & down a bit at around 80MPH... it's a bit annoying amongst other things!

Anyhow, I see lots of the front clips being sold on eBay and suchlike, but I've still never seen any of the "back" receivers that I need. -Perhaps it's not a commonly-broken part.

-Does anyone have a spare one or two for sale? -I'm not sure if they're left-hand or right-hand specific.

Thanks in advance,

Keith

Might just be gears. If they are stripped roof will flop too. See Pelican parts.

Is this the part you need?

I'll send it to you for $5.00 (shipping), if you join Rennlist and become a member. I'll enclose an addressed envelope and you can send me the $5.00 by return mail.

Nope.

I'm looking at a snapped part here, and it's not a gear. It's the bit inside the sunroof.


-It doesn't look like that picture as far as I can tell... I'll have another look. Maybe I should take a photo of the snapped part which I have...
