Sunroof stuff
Posted: Tue Dec 07, 2021 2:22 pm
Sorry Ive been away for awhile, ( seems crawling out of the grave takes precedent over my road runner.. but not by much 
)
Anywho, now that I have beat back the Grim Reaper and took his Scythe, I have found a couple of things that might be of interest to some of you and can finally get to working on long delayed projects.
1. Sunroof switches. Hit up Jimmy Boros at jimmyboros@airgrabber.com or 763-229-6888, He has a stash of them. little pricey but he has them.
2. I have found my copies of the factory power sunroof manual, ( although I'm missing 2 pages at the moment). Would it be best to file them here as a JPG or PDF files?
3. I am starting to make a mold for the front pad on the sunroof headliner from my original part. I'm just checking to see how many of these are worth making. I'm not really into profit but they will be priced to cover time and materials and 12 pack of St. Pauli Girl. This is a ways out yet but checking interest. It seems some had one piece and others had three ( one front and two along the sides. ( the side pieces seem to just be 1/8-1/4 inch piece of foam so I won't be doing those as they can be replaced fairly easy with modern materials. For the front piece I'm debating using the original foam or a modern counterpart with the same texture but better wear and durability characteristics. Chime in with your preferences. Nothing is set in stone and I could probably do both since the mold doesn't care.
