Glass sunroof frame fabrication

[Juju-la-Crapule]

Unscrew the old rusty panel and replace it with the metal panel. These are the same fasteners

[JariP]

Have you done this yourself, changed only the panel from glass to metal? The fasteners are the same? I've asked this before here if the panels are interchangeable, but the answer last time was they have nothing in common. It won't work. Which one is it? My glass panel has gone rotten as well.

I was under the same impression, whole cassette needs changing, but that is not from direct experience.

That was my next question mate , I've now taken my glass panel out and just look at the state .....
did you change your pull back panel inside aswell as there different.

[Juju-la-Crapule]

Yes, they are adaptable. I simply removed the grey plastic part that slides off.

Yes I made the change myself

Here is the part I removed

This is the metal sunroof

[Jamesey]

It looks a perfect fit , yes I've got the sliding bit on still I wondered if that came off .

[Jamesey]

I've taken these off my car and gone back to standard so as soon as I can post on the for sale section I'll be into it
but going back to the sunroof I'll be picking my metal panel up on Saturday

Got the panel and I think it will fit but the plastic bit you have taken out is the rear gutter I think.
my rubber seal on my panel meets at the back aswell with a slight gap so it'll definitely drip .see pics
See what you think ?

The panel must be adjusted in height and the seal changed

I could really do with using audi tradition but after emailing them they say they can't post to a private sale over to the uk .
I need door seals aswell as I've lost the drivers side
