Default Sunroof wind deflector clip broke

Hello! Today I opened the sunroof and when I tried to close it it kept bouncing back. I looked to see and the clip that holds the wind shade broke on the left side. Anybody had this happen to theirs?

Strongly encourage fixing on your own - I should have done that. While dealership had Defender awaiting arrival of the part to fix under warranty, a freak hailstorm hit and caused $8K in hail damage.

Moral to the story: if able to do it, do it yourself!

What a coincidence. I used my sunroof yesterday for the first time in a year and it would not close. had a look and the clip is broken as you say. Warranty time.

Thank you all for the responses. It definitely looks very easy to fix but kind of annoyed about the fragility.

I have order the part from Amazon but will
not get here until the 28th. Fortunately, the weather looks favorable here in Central Florida for the next week and it’s garaged.

I will be calling a LR specialized body shop tomorrow see if they can get the clip sooner.

I will post here when fixed and let you all know if I ran into any issues.

This is the part number LR137034. Amazon has them for between $30-$100 but they don’t not have any that get to me in less than a week. The dealer has them in stock and are $170.

AliExpress also has them but have not purchased from that site before.

Fix is easy! The cost not so much.
