    WTB: Sunroof arms (L&R Gates)

    Looking for #19, both left and right. They need to be good condition with no cracks, and screw threads clean and not stripped. Let me know what you have.

        They aren't terribly expensive new. I tried the used route, and it didn't work for me, still had alignment and movement issues. Bought some new ones and they work perfect. THey also come with new sliders (#20).

          since I greased everything it moves great, just the arm broke when I was tightening down the panel. Cheapest I found new ones was Turner at around $90, way too much IMO. I hardly use the sunroof since it's a track car anyway, but I have to keep it to stay in my class.

            Tischer/blunt tech/etc... should be around $33/each. But that's still $66 for both, so I see your point

              $66 is more reasonable for brand new, but im cheap, lol.
