    the 1 pc seal is better, cost me around $45 I think. Beats two pieces, plus better seal sinceit goes all-around.

      I PM'ed my friend blunt. I went with OEM 2 piece. It, after all had that on it. My OEM 2 piece seals never gave me an issue in the past. So I am just going to do it again.

        If you need help on putting the moonroof in place, PM Winfred over on E30Tech. He has one installed. Bitch is nice.

          Just an FYI, the one piece (OEM) is the updated better version of the 2-piece, but it's your $ - :) it wraps around with no breaks in between

            Shaddup. haha! I noticed the one piece was OEM after I posted that.

            Oh well - it is here and I am going to use it. :)

            Thanks for the tip though.

                You cant get them new... You need to get lucky on ebay. They go for $550+ depending on condition.

                BUT GET IN LINE... If anyone here has one I am looking for a MINT condition glass roof with all parts. I will gladly pay over market value for a good condition roof with lots of pictures. OR i can trade you my mediocre condition glass moonroof plus money for your very good condition one. ANY TAKERS? I am SICK of getting burned by ebay.

                    I'm wondering if anyone else has problem with the moonroof sliding back all the way? Mine gets stuck halfway and it's a bitch to slide it forward again, I wonder if the seal is the problem, thinking to peel the seal from my old sunroof and put it in the moonroof.

                        anywho - I put the shade in today. It was cake. I just took off what I didn't need, and added the sunshade. It was a sticky greasy mess under the tracks (as it should be) - but other than that it was simple.

                        I am going to refinish the moonroof now - and then we will be as good as new!

                          Doubt it is a seal issue. Have you taken the panel off to see what is going on? It could be a easy as adding some grease! :)

                              When you retract the moonroof does the shade retract with it or do you have to manually slide it back...

                              Curious what the instructions say with this thing... just bought a brand new one.

                                Well do! I need to wet sand the frame and paint it first. Right now I just have it laying over the hole in the roof! ;)
