About a year ago there was a post about a broup buy for a new gear for the moonroof. I needed a new one but sold the car to my brother-in-law about that time and never checked on it. With it getting hotter now he was asking me about it does anyone know what is going on with it? I tried a search for it but it said the thread moved or something like that. Any help would be great thanks!

Damn! $55 for a piece of plastic!

Has anyone tried to make or get made an aluminium/metal one? I don't have a sunroof so I have no need, but damn.

$55 may seem like an expensive deal, but when factoring in the ONLY other solution (a new motor assembly and installation) you were ORIGINALLY looking at about the same price as having your clutch replaced!

There was NO alternative.. either pay up ordeal with it..

Now, you can buy the gear as a standalone part, replace it in about 20 minutes and be done... IF it ever were to strip, replacements are FREE for the LIFE of your car. period.


a GREAT deal, no matter how you look at it.

Yes, and IIRC because of the design of the gear making them would cost about the same if not more.
