Dr.Fiero Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Thought some might find this interesting. Some annoying. Some amazed, shocked and or dismayed. Like myself, my car (98 STS) isn't getting any younger. And with 270K on the clock of my daily driver, things are starting to wear out. One of them is the seal on my sunroof. It didn't help that the previous owner THOUGHT it was leaking and... GLUED IT SHUT! Well, since the suns starting to come out here, I thought it'd be nice to finally get it open. So, I very slowly and carefully cut back the gunk he used to seal it up, and cleaned off as much as I could from the body, and the seal itself. Unfortunately, the seal was in pretty piss poor shape. No big (I tell myself!)... I've got a close buddy who works at the parts dept of GM. I'll just give him a call! Well, I won't say the price here, but he says "No problem. I can get you the seal for only $xxx.xx! I'll even include the glass for no charge!" (he's kidding). Yes, you heard it right. They don't sell the seal. Just the complete glass assembly! So, has anyone gone to Steel Rubber (or SoffSeal, or one of the other manufacturers) and asked them about making a seal? All they'd need is the exact cross section of it, and how long it was. Then it could be glued or stuck on with 3M trim tape. We can get all these seals for the Fiero's already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Fiero Posted April 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Ah! #19! I've just forwarded that on to buddy - maybe he hadn't had his first caffiene injection yet that morning? We were chatting over email, so I never even looked at the picture myself... thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilSeville Posted January 14, 2020 Report Share Posted January 14, 2020 I also need weatherstrip and also need the divider part #4 I believe? Also in search of reasonable lid pull down motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
