Hey i have a 75 dodge dart sport with a sunroof that i took off and i realized that this part on the right side of the sunroof was broken. need help in where to get a new one or used one. any help would be great! Picture are below. The one that is shaped like a 0 is the non-broken one. But the first pictures is the broken one. Also we need any weather stripping and trim. Thanks

Contact David Hemenway @ 303-770-5579 for reproduction sunroof seals.

As for the "O" shaped part, something doesn't look right there. Are these the original cables? See pic below for an example. Should look like this. The lobe on the cable guide contacts the ramp on the track as you're closing the sunroof, which makes the back of the outer panal rise to seal. The "L" shaped bracket is attached to the interior side of the outer panal.

My 74 Dart has a sun roof that I covered up with a vinyl top. Does your contact above have some type of rebuild kit for that roof?
 
LJS30...The seals are the only part being reproduced for our manual crank sunroofs. The rest has to be found either used or NOS.
 
its the same piece just our is without L-shaped piece on it. we are looking for the lobe shaped piece. thanks

Well on mine the crank simply would turn but fail to move the sun roof in addition with leaking very badly. So pretty much I'd have to go custom I figure because none of the aftermarket locations I know of supply anything for these sunroofs.
 
If anyone knows were to get this sun roof seal for a reasonable price please let me know I need one bad Thanks
 
The sunroofs are from Golde. They are a German company that MA Mopar bought the sunroof assemblies from. The same roofs were used on Mercedes, BMWs and others..

I have not yet been able to research which of the German cars used the same roof as the vintage Mopars. This would give us the correct seals and other parts, cables etc.
 
I wound up buying my roof gasket from Executive Auto in Gibsonia Pa for I believe $85. FYI it is fuzzy and doesn't seal anything but dirt out ,that's how it is designed, I hope this helps

I'm having drive gears and cable guide plates machined. If you're in need of these so your sunroof works properly see my ad in the classified section under interior parts.
 
My drive gear and retainer plate turned out great. Already sold all but one.
