I would be interested, I believe I need a new cassette for mine as well but the glass frame is more of an issue.

Hi, I'm in the same state as you...I lost the glass sunroof on the highway and I still don't have any glass on it....

Wow, never seen that happen before...

Yes it was impressive

.....now I don't have any glass.
I made a custom glass but the result is not so good.

Maybe the car following you ended up with it

Or you decapitated them.

I'd love to know how to sort my glass sunroof the metal panel underneath the glass is rotten as a pair and it's forcing the front part of the glass out .
my other choice is to swap it completely out for a metal panel type that I've found for £80 and then I'll have my spare glass .
But to be honest I'd rather sort and keep my glass lid

there is a lot of work to do.....
I repaired my stand with a custom-made glass that I paid 1000 euros for and then replaced mine with a metal one lol

I take it the roof liner has to come out to get to everything.

**Juju-la-Crapule** · 31 August 2021, 12:42

If it's just to put the metal roof on, there's no need to dismantle everything

Hi , I've been offered this panel from a b4 coupe but I'd like to know if this would be just a case of taking my rusty framed glass out and bolting this in its place,,,,straight swap would you say ?
I'd probably need a different sliding roof part aswell wouldn't I as I think they have a tilt slot etc
