The rubber around my sunroof has cracked!
« on: 12 June 2011, 16:58 »
Hi all, as you can gather the rubber around my sunroof has cracked. Thankfully she is in the garage so all is ok atm. How ever I am going to have to buy a replacement asap and get this fixed! Anybody done this themselves before? Any advice? Thanks

I don't think the seal is available from VW now.

I'm sure someone on here gas just bought one for £45 from vw as I want one myself. Will dig a part number out when I get home from work and let you know.

I'm thinking of replacing the sunroof seal aswell along with refurbing the paintwork on the surround.

- Packardjc, is that the cheapest you can get them for?  :shocked:
