which bit of the sunroof is it from?
-
your fooked..
time for a new sunroof matey
-
And changing the sunroof ain't a nice job.
I did the one in my old Mk3 when I was 17 though, so it could just be the fact I was young and had to do it on my own :grin:
You have to remove the a/b/c pillar trims, the sun visors, grab handles, interior light etc, then the roof lining, then there's a load of bolts holding the sunroof in place, meh, just thinking about it is bad enough :grin:
-
its easy to do, did mine on my own whilst i was off ill with flu, bit of a pain in the ass trying to hold it up in place whilst you get the first bolt in tho hahahaha
ps you can do it without fully removing the roof liner as i did, just drop it down at the front
-
the part came from the passanger side of it. i take it the part is connected somewhere not just a bit thats broken off

lol like I say, I did mine when I'd just turned 17, it was raining and very windy which didn't really help as my roof lining snapped :angry:
Oh well, sold it for 1600 quid (Mk3 Golf 1.4 Ryder) so it was worth it in the end
-
looks like ill be having fun doing that in the next couple of weeks, just as i was about to sell it as well

Far from me to say it but if your selling it, then leave it as is and just tell people that it is not working.
-
i thought about that but some people wouldnt buy it as that not working might make people think is there anything else wrong

Not really, if your honest and tell them you have nothing to hide.
-
true i might just try that then just knock a little off if they moan to much about that.

Sunroof isn't that difficult, I had ours out a little while ago, cleaning and greasing. Just wanted it out TBH to see how hard to fit one to mine.
CBA a the mo, have to cut all the roof.
Might tint the sunroof though.
