#1 Help with sunroof

Post by malcolm » Sat Sep 10, 2022 8:49 am

I've posted in the "wanted" section as well, but On my sliding Webasto, (Unipart) sunroof, there are black plastic pieces on the ends of the metal batons that slide in the runners. One has gone missing. Has anyone got a spare one?

Hi Malcolm,
I was recommended to use electrical insulation shrink sleeves by a guy who refurbishes Webasto roofs.
I haven't tried it yet as mine has not been refitted , but as all the ends are currently wound in black insulation tape, its sounds a solution.
Clearly you need the sleeves and a heat gun to effect the 'modification'.
Regards

Thanks for that info, I'm sure it will be handy for the future, but I have found a replacement for the missing one.
