Hello all,
I am sure this has been mentioned previously but I haven't found it. I have been looking for ages for bits for my defunct sunroof (the darned plastic bits.... currently propped with a piece of wood)
I decided to restart my search for a used unit and stumbled upon an outfit in Turkey that supply a repair kit with all of the bits. I ordered on Monday expecting a fair wait but lo and behold they arrived the next day all the way from Turkey! Superb service I must say. I have not had time as of yet to install them but they look the real mcCoy to me.
I would imagine that others have seen these bits but just in case they came from www.valeaautoparts.com and certainly did not cost much.
Just thought I would mention it on the offchance anyone was looking :))

Cheers

Sorry but I do think they will work! I had a guy contact me last month who purchased these parts and unfortunately they did not work. I sold him my last set of factory parts.. I have dropped off a good set at a CNC shop last month to see if they can make the sliding part which breaks out of aluminum.. Please let us know what you find...

Thanks for the reply Scotty,
I will let all know if they work. If you have originals
Rather than CNC maybe investment casting would
be an option, I use to do it in my former work as a
toolmaker. Could form a latex mould around the bits
you have and make copies very accurately.
Cheers

This post was from me a while back, the parts did work although I had to sand them slightly to allow them to slide freely, they have been in use for a while now so far so good.

Hi OB,
The ones I posted fitted my old girl, I thought the RR3 had a different mechanism, when I originally ordered them (some time back now) they were listed for the P38.
How is life in my old county?

Looks OK from here. I popped down to Border Control at the Tamar Bridge recently and Cornwall was definitely still there. Still fighting to be declared an independent nation...
