Heh.. fuck you.. my '89 sunroof completely rusted to hell.. like they all do.. so i can't find any junk yard replacements.. I guess they did something about the rust issue on the '90 models or something or your car was just particularly cared for..

About the seal.. I know what you speak of.. and I would take care of it ASAP.. shouldnt' take more than an hour to replace if you have good instructions and I don't know what the new seal would cost.. probably like 30 dollars from a toyota dealer but who knows.

I'm not sure about for 90 Corolla, but for my 86 gts, I bought it through richmond hill toyota about CAD $100.............

My roof is fucked to, i doesnt even work, but it leaks like a bitch, how much do you think the toyota dealer would charge to fix it, i think im just gonna go tear apart one from the junk yard and try to fix it.

how long ago is this? do you think they still have one for an '86 gt-s? was it special ordered?

CorollaINC, pass on that idea.. Toyota will charge you an assload to fix it.. (Probably in the bet of 700USD bux parts and labor to bring it back to stock condition) and you won't find any good parts at a junk yard.. atleast the sun-roof panels.. they will all be rusted to mofo'ing hell..

your best bet is to go to a local shop that strictly repairs auto-glass and sun/moon-roofs

Could it be that your sunroof is rusted through?? I hope not!

thank God I don't have one in my car.

about two month ago, along with the sunroof panel (need special order, around $400-450)......

of the weatherstrip, they still have stock at that time, but not sure about now.

Could be rusted through since it has quite a bit of bondo or something in it.

Thanks for the advice, i think i will look for a shop, cause when it rains outside it pours inside, i use t- shirts and shit to stop the leaking, i need to get that fixed soon
