Sunroof problems

[BlazinEagle]

The Mustang has developed a leak from the sunroof that appears to be coming from the frame to glass seal. It is a dealer installed sunroof and I have had no luck in finding parts. Anyone has any ideas other than silicon? It is marked with PPG solarcool DOT 18. The glass dimensions are 15 3/8 X 29 3/8. Found a site that list the sunroof as 1832 but parts are obsolete.
Thanks,
Rodney

What year is it? Most factory type sunroofs are made to "leak". Channels run inside the perimeter frame and direct water thru troughs in the a pillars and d pillars. If it is the fixed moonroof that flips up and pivots from a front axis only you may be better off with some eurethane sealer. Post up a pick of your sunroof to show me what style it is.

It is an 89 GT. I will try to get a pic today.

I dealt with this on my '88 LX..... ended up putting a solid roof skin on it and getting rid of that crappy aftermarket sunroof.

X3 on the solid roof skin. Friend of mine did the same thing on his Bullitt, looks ten times better as well.

Did the same swap on my 89 GT, got pics if you are interested, also have a solid roof if you are interested.
