Replacing Sunroof Seals
Currently pulling the headliner in my truck. Going to add 04 roof rails in the process. I would like to know if there are any cheaper places to get new sunroof seals? It seems like everyone on ebay wants at least $60 a seal. Which is a bull**** price if you ask me.
I dont know for certain that mine are leaking but I figure I'd replace them out of precaution. Would they necessarily need to be replaced? Could I used to RTV to re seat them and be good to go?

Where did you get your sealant? This sounds like it's right up my alley. You didn't seal your sunroofs shut did you? You just put the old seals back with silicone right? If I'm reading you correctly..

The seal is p/n EEQ500010. Land Rover Parts and Accessories | LandRoverMerriamParts.com has them for $45 each.
This seal is for the glass to the sunroof seal. For the body to sunroof seal you should use a marine sealant. There was an article about pulling the head liner and resealing the sunroofs in Land Rover Monthly last year. It was very detailed. I think it was the April 2014 issue.

oh yeah, those puppies are sealed shut. the sealant was a GE waterproof 30 year black sealant I got at home depot. did not seal them at the bottom or sides, just the top parts exposed to the weather. used mineral spirits to do extensive cleaning. also laid a little bead at the base of the roof racks.
