WilkesyMB6 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Good work, there a bit there to keep you busy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakey135 Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 Yeah more than enough to keep me busy! Ontop of everything else after further inspection I deffinately need a new sunroof! Parts of the seal are corroded and its started to rust in areas of the metal band that attaches the seal to the glass!Where am i likely to get a sunroof with a decent seal on apart from brand new??

Krzys Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Your options are brand new from Honda or second hand really, I don't know of anywhere that do them new other than Honda. Second hand may not be any better or may not last very long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second hand may not be any better or may not last very long.Thats what i thought krzys! I'll have a little price up at some point to see if its worth it!On a brighter note...New upper arms fitted!New track rod ends fitted!New thermostat fitted and refilled with coolant to save it getting crappy again! Previous owner must have just kept topping it up with water!! LolAbout to leave work and hopefully enjoy the non-knocky non-rickety journey home on my fresh ball joints!! Happy days, shes back on track! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
