AW11 sunroof (not targa)

Have a 1989 AW11, with a badly cracked sunroof (not a twin targa, the removable sunroof). If anyone's wrecking, please contact me.
 
Cheers!

    Found a crazy ebay seller in the UK with the best range of AW11 parts I've seen at pretty ridiculous prices. I've just ordered a replacement sunroof for 25 quid (!!!!!), and other bits are just as crazily priced. I'll report back once I've received it, and say whether I recommend it, or if A-Dub owners should avoid the shop.

    Well, it cracked in transit, as the seller warned it might (no couriers will guarantee glass iirc). Still he packed it well and was very professional, so I think I will get more parts from him.
     
    So, still chasing a sunroof....

    Took a gamble on a second roof, with UK ebay seller Paul Sims, but told him to go crazy with the packing this time, and good news; the sunroof arrived uncracked! As for Paul Sims, fabulous seller, top marks.

    I've bought a few bits from him before, never had any issues, massive range of parts too.

    Paul Sims (UK) is awesome for AW11 parts. So cheap, ultra friendly and professional. Use the guy and keep him in business.

    I don't think Paul's actually making money from it, price wise, I think he's just keeping our A-Dubs on the road. :)

    Paul sent me the wrong parts once and wasn't interested in making it right. (Wouldn't respond to email etc)  I now use the other guy on Ebay Neiljones328 who is fantastic. Same amount of AW11's being wrecked.

    He does get sick sometimes and a bit overwhelmed, I give him the benefit of the doubt. Will check out Neil Jones though.

    I've bought stuff from Neil Jones before, good to deal with and no issues.  I have given Paul Sims a go this time around chasing a dizzy.


    Go soothingly on the grease mud as there lurks a skid demon.
