Remake a sun roof part

My experience seals and gaskets are not expensive at the F dealer. I just bought a new rear window rubber for 150 USD at the dealer. I would get it there and at the same time see if they have the other part as well. You can always decide not to take it after knowing the price but then you have at least the part number.

 

I am told the sunroof seal on my 89 t is the same as the BMW e28 ( 5 series). I am guessing same for the earlier models.

I believe this stuff hasn't changed since the first Gen Mondials. When I look at the parts they all mention QV, 3.2 and T. The 8 simply has no partnumber list available online so it is not that list. I have no idea if BMW has the same. Look and compare

 

.

I read in some forums that a few European cars of that era shared the same sunroof mechanisms.
ie. BMW, MB, Ferrari, etc.,

I have not vouched the info, so don't take it as gospel.

 

Yep, I do. If you explain me how to dismantle the mechanism without breaking anything.

 

I am also needing the white plastic parts. does anyone know where can I get them?

I’ve spoken to Stefan at Redbay parts and he doesn’t have them.

Have a look at Porsche for bits, i recall someone saying it was the same. Then get doctors appointment as messing with these will do your mental health in.

OK - shout out to Dan Noble (see link in post 21 above) with assistance from FerrariChatter, wilkrod. I had several issues with my sunroof and needed numerous replacement parts including the three guides on the edges, the end pieces for the swivel (post #18 above), the top plastic guide that goes on the piece with the cable (post #2 above), etc. etc. After a user error on my part required a repaint of the sunroof, I sourced a bunch of new parts from Dan and finally got it installed this weekend. For me, the hardest part was getting the aluminum "wings" on the back of the roof to slide into the guides. In any case, from what I can see from the Etsy listing, they have all the parts I needed and pretty much every part for the sunroof (except the motor/cable stuff). Some of the parts have been upgraded with better/stronger plastics and better designs. So overall, a good resource and very helpful vendor which is appreciated when you are dealing with something as finicky as the sunroof.
