Yes- a sunroof store.
Go to the oldest car shop in town that advertises rear sliders for pickups or an auto glass shop that's been in business for 30 years. Most real shops are a C.R. Lawrence dealer- and have done or do SRs. And that company is very much still at it. They are likely the largest aftermarket glass accessory manufacturer in the US. When I did that horrible sunroof deed to cars, we had boxes of replacement parts, latches, screws etc.. By a replacement latch while you are there, some day you will need it.
Or, a junkyard- sunroofs are the last accessory removed from any 1984 Camaro... _________________

| Have you lost all of them? Do you have one left to use to compare? If so, and you are in the USA, you would be surprised at what they have at Ace Hardware. I have found bug and bike screws, bolts, spring washers, cv bolts, etc there. I always check there first before ordering and find what I need 90% of the time. Just got some shock bolts and fender bolts there today. |
