im a new subscriber names tom but my friends call me flash bought a 92 sc400 that was fire damaged rebiuilding for my wife , had no idea that the parts were hard to find and exspensive but im doing allright takin my time and im close to finishing it. i do need some help on installing the sunroof headliner part .how do you repl;ace the panel without taking the whole sunroof assembly out / dont want to do that .any help would be greatly appreciated

 

according to my manual you do not need to remove the sunroof assembly to remove or replace the roof headlining.

 

yes, parts are relatively pricey. contact aliga or rjdist for all your parts needs in the classified section. Welcome! Have any pics of the car?

 

like i said im new to this forum stuff but i did try to post some pics a link to my yahoo photos but it only shows up as a box w/ a x on it here .what gives can anyone walk me throughthe best way to put photos on here. by the way drove 150 miles yesterday to a salvage yard in indiana and got a front passenger seat very very good condition which is rare for a good price 250.00 worked out in the garage till 330 am got everything back together but the passenger seat and the front clip being painted now cant wait to get this baby out on the road ,have only driven in the neighboorhood couple times so i dont really know how she will drive yet thanks tom i think i figured it out a little heres the car when i first went to buy it will post project pics but how do you post a set of pics?

 

heres a pic of the fire damaged area i had to stripp the entire interior and start from scratch but ive learned an awful lot about the car and gettin pretty good at findsing parts reasonable although they are hard to find .its been a gas doing this though tom

 

thanks for the info im aware i dont need to take it out to replace the one piece headliner ,but the part i need to replace is just the cover separate piece that goes under the sunroof and slides in and out. if your manual addresses that i would really appreciate the help thanks tom

 

WOW! My name is Flash, but my friends call me Tom!

Welcome Flashy Tom

 

hello Tom welcome to CL- you can also use photobucket- much easier in my opinion to post photos- looks like the sc is comeing along quite nicely- goodluck on the rebuild

 

Well I looked at my manual again and it does not specify how to just take off the sliding shade cover. But it looks like you do need to take off the headliner completely just to get to it.

 

thanks for the encouragement ,i really!!! like this car got the rear window put in today ,interiors done except for passenger seat .found an old retired police officer who does custom interior as a hobby and he is fixing the tear on the seam of my passenger seat. that saves me about 200.00 so i dont have to buy another at the salvage yard ,thats crazy trying to find one ,the shipping is outrageous if you do find one in good shape and thats rare
i drove the car over to his house today and it runs great smooth powerband and drives like a dream .i may sell my 3000gt and get me a sc 300 to mod up and drive
92 sc400 project(almost done)
93 dodge stealth
93 mitsubishi 300gt sl
87 suzuki intruder 1400 gl

 

well its done as far as im concerned maybe some performance mods tocome later but foe now wife loves it its her daily driver and runs and drives like a dream thanks for all who helped with parts and advice tom
