Sun roof Clips - Where to get?

[bullrush]

Hi, my 93 explorer came with the "clips" that attach and detach the sunroof missing, I have made clips out of wood that work fine except I cannot take my sunroof off, does anyone know where I could get these? I can't go to a junkyard and get them because I live in South Africa and there are unfortunately not too many of these vehicles here Thanks

do you have any part number at all???

 

[bullrush]

Nope, I asked around and found this (see pic) But the guy that i spoke to said they don't make the spare clips anymore, only the glass (which I have imported already), thanks

Think I would need numbers 2, 3, 4 and 5 for my sunroof. Unfortunatly mine came with some plastic for the sunroof when I bought her, have replaced the glass and made my own clips but would like the original parts for it if it is possible...

howdy from California, i actually have been lucky and have two spare sunroofs with the clips and i would not have a problem shipping them to you. i have never shipped anything overseas. but i would figure it out.

looking at both of my sunroofs the hinges are different, i am wondering if anyone with a 93 xlt could actually take a picture of the hinges on their sunroof. i dont want to send you the wrong one. the little extension to connect the forward part of the sunroof to the truck is a little longer than the other. i dont know if it really matters. since you dont need the glass i intend on sending you a whole unit (has scratches on the glass) if it doesnt matter i will send it as soon as possible.
