my sun roofs gone
Ok. Don't laugh my sun roof came off while was in travel completely gone,
so now I'm after all those bits that held it on any helpers. 16v
Don't want to jack the car to good.

Re: my sun roofs gone
Erm, is yours a factory fit sunroof? If so, how could it have come off, they fit flush to the roofline so any air will be pressing down on it, rather than lifting it up?

Re: my sun roofs gone
Yes factory fitted just flew off there was a fair bit of rust
on the frame but I don't think it was that.

Re: my sun roofs gone
How bizarre, hope nothing was following you. Try contacting Paul Handley who has access to a few scrappers which may yield you the parts you need.

Re: my sun roofs gone
There are a few types of 'factory fit' sunroof, i suspect this might be the simple Webasto 'pop up' roof which simply hinges at the front, rather than the more common full tilt and slide powered sunroof?
I have a spare tilt and slide sunroof glass somewhere, but i don't think this is what you need?

Vanny, its for a Valver, So IMHO I'd say its the full electric tilt/slide O/E type !Vanny wrote:There are a few types of 'factory fit' sunroof, i suspect this might be the simple Webasto 'pop up' roof which simply hinges at the front, rather than the more common full tilt and slide powered sunroof ?
