Re: Sunroofs

I too had the sunroof woes on my 84 5ks.  The right lift arm broke right in
two.  It'd go up--sort of--but not back.  All sorts of nasty things would
happen when I tried, including losing a bit of paint off the top.  Dealer
wanted $400 to fix it.  Soooo...  Off to the local VW/Audi yard.

I picked up a complete sunroof, including motor for $50.  Granted, I had to
pull it out of the car in the yard, but for that price, you bet!  Went home
with a six-pack and after about 1 1/2 hours I had a working sunroof.  I
love those wrecking yards!
