Did mine.....now you've got me thinking.
Did I mask off the domes and repaint or did I take them out?
I'm sure they came out quite easily.

I got a moonroof from Ian.The glass round the Black domed screws with deep scratches. The steel screw and the alloy black domed i have to drill out and made new one.Bloody nightmare is the correct description Keith. Every time water,alloy and steel was coming together shit happens. Remember it's usa not a japanese part.

OK, I must have masked off the domes and resprayed in situ.
Whatever I did it worked nicely.

This topic made me think recently. I've spoken to one of the guys I work with. Would anybody be interested in getting some new ones made up? Either aluminium or stainless steel? :?: :lol:

I'd be interested, cost dependent. Had a punt at the glass one on eBay but it got a bit rich! Past a certain price point I'd rather just put in the blood, sweat and tears to fix the old one!
