Rick Anderson Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Need weather stripping for sunroof. Any after market suppliers recommended? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Eaton Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Please be more specific. If you have a leak, it is probably because you have a plugged drain. The sunroof insert only has a felt trim and that is probably available at shops that install sunroofs. The felt is not intended to stop water or seal the opening, just keep stuff out that would plug the drains. There are four drains, one in each corner.

Guest CL_Reatta Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 You can also take one off of a RX-7 of the same era... I have an extra in my basement for when mine eventually deteriorates. Also, if it is leaking check to make sure the assembly itself isnt leaking (sitting water + metal = rust holes, which is what happened to mine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Eaton Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Good point on the rusting of the pan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padgett Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I replaced all the hoses on mine when replacing the sunroof cable. The front ones seemed to be bent almost double where they ran down the A-pillar. Is this the way the factory did it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Anderson Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 Perhaps I'm using wrong "roof" term altogether. It is the operating metal panel that retracts toward the rear of the car. I am missing the small peice of rubber that goes around the metal panel, leaving a small gap between the panel and the roof of the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
