WTB: Sunroof parts (lift arms)

[oaklandw124]

Hi, I have a 400E that has a sunroof issue. I’m assuming the sunroof is the same as a 500E I need the following slide rails.

1267820612
1267820512

By chance do any of you have these parts in good condition? They are a little pricey new.

Thanks,
Eric

Yes, the sunroof mechanism uses the same lift arms on all 124's. New ones come with all new felt pads, some of which are NLA. Used ones may need some of the felt pads replaced, and they aren't cheap. So unless you can source good used arms that have all, or most, of the felt pads in good shape... new is worth considering. Best price I know of is ~$350 for both. Ping @david hendy for used ones, he might have some available.

Are you CERTAIN than you need to replace these?

Thanks Dave! Yes, the indy mechanic said that one is broken and one is cracked (they were replacing the headliner and the sunroof now has issues with tilting up and down.
