Leaky sunroof?

The previous owner of my car said that the sunroof didn't work and it had been sealed up, but I hit the button the other day and it opened... but now every time it rains the sunroof leaks all over my seat. :mad: Do they even make the seals for these anymore?

you should be able to find a new sun roof motor on ebay or local salvage yard. I found one on ebay a year ago to replace mine. Get it fixed quickly though because the water could leak into your headliner and make it saggy... thats what happened to one of my birds.
