    Still chasing carbon fibre trims for a good price
    Need my sunroof UNSEALING as previous mr lucky man who had my car before i bought it sealed it shut as water was getting in rather than simply getting a seal -.- anyone have a seal??????? Be needing one soon as its nearly time to go the body shop
    If anyone has any black roof handles and sunvisors that would be great as i have a black roof lining to go in as the grey one is badly water damaged and has a temp fix at the moment

      Even new seals are not 100% water proof. They weren't designed to be. That is why the sunroof cassette has four drains, one in each corner of the cassette, to drain water that makes it past the seals away and out of the car. When these drains are not kept clear, water will back up the tubes and spill into the interior.

      You can use "weed-eater" stiff filament string or an old mechanical speedo cable to clear the drain hoses.

                            Black plug is probably gearbox speed sensor, hard to tell with seeing the wire colours
