Thanks to Arya for coming round to show me how to remove the sunroof today.

Typically it's pouring with rain now

Nice one chaps. Was good of Arya to pop over to give you a hand. That's the great spirit on this here forum

Yeah it was very good of him to give up his time and though I have done most jobs on cars I have never had to take a sunroof out so it was good to watch someone who knew what he was doing.

I cant blame anyone but myself for the choice of day.

It wasn't a problem at all. I've taken mine out many many times so it wasn't difficult. Was nice to work on somebody elses Capri for a change. Let me know when you've got the parts and i'll come back and refit it and make sure its not scratching the top and i'll take it away and get it painted up for you.

Perhaps a 'how to' on removing the sunroof might be a good idea, I'm sure it would help lots of people out? There may already be one, but it sure sounds like you have got this off to a tee.

Yeah might be worth doing. I have seen other people attempt to explain it but now this photobucket thing has happened their threads are probably useless now.

When i put Not_Anumber's sunroof back in i'll take pictures of the removal procedure as it has to come out again anyway for paint, and then i'll make a how to tutorial like i did with the BMW headlight conversion.

Any info from someone like yourself who obviously knows what they are doing would be welcome as I have mine to do as it is scratched, doesn't tilt anymore and I want to put a new seal on. Look forward to seeing all the tips and tricks

Hey Arya looks like a bit of an 'open and shut" case

Alignment must be quite a wind up so it's good someone has got a handle on it.

I see that the "Nick effect" is kicking in on this thread!

Not really. Take it from me there are a lot of issues that can "pop up".

There's me thinking you would hit the " roof " with these comments.............

[Fordoholic Nick]

Sorry chaps I did not mean to 'wind' you all up but sometimes I just cant help myself and always seem to end up 'tilting' towards a pun. I do apologise

I will 'seal' this post off now with an All the best....

All the best
