Title: Sunroof Motor???
Post by: TGPrix. on July 29, 2004, 03:00:16 PM
So yeah, I believe tha motor for my sunroof finally took a shit!...It still makes tha clicking noise as if it wants to work giving me tha impression that tha wire's are fine/connected...I took it to a sunroof repair shop and they told me that it sounds like its dead, only other thing ir could be is that tha wires under tha sunrood area could be stuck!...So yeah, GM sells tha motor for $345.00 or somthing, and I really don't want to spend that much...But I have to do something cause its been raining alot lately and my sunroof is stuck in its popped up position and my car is starting to smell moldy...

So this is my question: Does anyone know if a motor from another car with tha exact sunroof would work in my car, there for I could just get one from a junkyard for alot cheaper. If so, do you know what sunroof motor from what car would work in mine...Did tha 90 SE's come with sunroofs?...What about tha 96 gtp's, do those have my sunroof?...

Any help will help...
Thanx...

88 to 93 GP's had the same sunroof. Also early 90's Regal Grand Sports use the same one I believe.

I've got an extra sunroof (glass, no motor) that works well and is closed if you get desperate.   I also know of a 93 at the yard I go to often that had the sunroof.. don't konw for sure if the motor is there still or not though.

The TGP sunroofs are made by ASC and are very common on so many cars and should easily be found. Once this design was put into production it rarely changed since it has proven itself to be very durable. Good luck

If my buddy doesn't need one of my two extra motors I can work out a deal with you. I'm keeping one for myself in case I ever need it.
