Help - Smashed sunroof.
Help - Smashed sunroof.
Last night in the early hours some mindless nutcase decided climb onto the roof of my car and smash the sunroof. The model is a BX14E Leader. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement glass and the outer poppets that takes the screws. The location is UK - West of England. Any help on this would be appreciated.

You say West of England? South West by any chance? If so try Lang & Potters, Bell Close, Plymouth there number is in the phone book. They used to fit aftermarket sunroofs probably can help you find a replacement.
Other than that Insurance Company or like said Glaizers.

Hi Kiwi
All i can say is you must have a very big phone book if its got a Plymouth UK phone number in it. (it must be the size of a house)
Hi Dwarfkat
On a more serious note if you know the make of the roof and the size when you are trying around to get a replacement it will make your life much easier.
Check to see if there is a model number or type near the handle.
Britax were a common type back then just a possibility

Thanks for your help.
Up to the present time I have not found a replacement glass and have covered the area with a thick doubled sheet of polythene.
From the remnants of the toughened glass I have found out two things. The manufacturer of the glass was 'Taylor Made', 'toughened' and the numbers '**OT 134-M428*** ' are visible on a fragment. The stars represent possible additional letters or numbers. I have tried Autoglass but without any luck. I'm sure there is a replacement glass sitting in someone's garage, but where is the problem.

Only a very slim chance as your's is non-standard and an aftermarket fit.dwarfkat wrote:I'm sure there is a replacement glass sitting in someone's garage, but where is the problem.
