sunroof

Post by evodrichie »

My sunroof is completely broken, the arms that pick it up are snapped on both sides. I cannot roll it in any direction. Is there anyone that has a full setup so I can redo it, or any input on what to do. it is getting a respray soon, I had though of making it a slick top....

It might help if you post where on Earth you are? It's a global forum and you could be anywhere.

Along with your location, it would also help if you put the year of your car as the sunroof mechanism varies.
They are ALWAYS rustier than you thought!!!!!!

Pop up some pictures of the broken bits? Have you used realoem to identify them and check price and availibility at all?
