Does any one know who repairs sunroofs in London.
The guy under London Bridge Station only does replacements (£360!) not repairs.
The sunroof was fitted new by M&O and the kerbside arm is broken.

The breakers is a good idea.

Also LTI buy most parts in from other manufacturers.
Any idea who made the sunroof? It may say on the sunroof somewhere.
Find out and try them.

If all else fails and the rain is getting in, seal it up with clear kitchen or bathroom sealant.

There are no markings on the window or the electric switch etc.
As the sunroof was supplied by M&O,I've been told it was fitted by Wolf who,I am also told,have gone out of business.
The sunroof doesn't leak as it is closed.
When it is opened,the kerbside arm (that holds the glass) travels at a different speed to the other arm.
I need someone who repairs sunroof.
I contacted Quaterman (windscreens etc) in SE1 who said they don't deal with sunroofs as they go wrong and you can't get the parts...

Something to remember when buying a new cab...
