does anybody know how to change the sunroof curtain ? mine is all saggy due to sun exposure...

the shade and pano roof are all one piece. when you replace the shade, you replace the entire pano roof from what a tech explained to me.

this last weekend when my headliner was down to install the IMS it looks like it is one unit. glass, shades, etc.

Thanks CitronC230K_03....I see how you can pull out the glass off the roof, but there has to be a way to order just the curtain assembly. Any suggestion as to replace it with another fabric ?

JohnCL

I don't think this is true. I have had my shade replaced 3 times and the glass has never been replaced.

electromethod

is the fabric just sagging? if so then might i make a ghettofabulous suggestion? Syringe (sp?) with superglue and then gently tack it back up. Do i get kudos for creativity guys?

JohnCL

Won't work man, the shade in a coupe is a motorized roller blind.

john i just assumed looking at the panoroof.

So I take it that there will be no kudos for me!

CitronC230K_03

the shade roll back. when thy are closed there is still a gap between the shades and the pano roof glass. i dont understand how this will help the saggiing shade curtain.

i think you are referring to the headliner sagging, not the pano roof shades.

electromethod

the fabric on the shade is sagging... correct? That's my interpretation..... that's why i figured a little bit of superglue would tap it back into the shade panel that the fabric is attached to. I must have misunderstood

CitronC230K_03

the fabric is attached to a chain kinda thing on the edges. kinda like a move theatre screen. it suspends in the middle.

electromethod

I don't remember the interior of the coupe doug ..... I remember the pano roof as being glass and "open," which is why I liked it so much. Can someone post a pic, just for my curiosity?
Thanks

it is rigged on the ends and supported on the side edges. in the middle it is has not structural rigidity.

electromethod

thanks guys....now it all makes sense......

pedrolane

i'll post a pic of the sagging tonight...stay tuned....

pedrolane

Check this crap. Is this replacable ?

JohnCL

You should be able to get it replaced, but it will cost you if you are out of warranty. When mine was replaced I spied the price sheet and it was around $1000 for the job. Thankfully I was under warranty.

superduper

Whoa, thats saggy. What I dont understand is why they made it black and not grey like the rest of the car.

pedrolane

$1,000 ??? I'm out of warranty.

superduper

Maybe a place that does headliners might be able to help you.

Dang, I just noticed your coupe has 100k? Any major problems?

pedrolane

Not really...little things here and there, but nothing major.

superduper

Thats good. I have 32k. Only the panoroof had to be fixed, other than that, nothing(knock on burlwood)

I hope you can get it fixed right for cheap. Good luck.
