Hi, folks, first time making a thread. My new (2001) Freelander sun roof is leaking. I have managed to remove the thing (just by pushing it out from the cabin)but the internal frame Looks like it has rusted to bits and most of it is on the floor of the cabin. Does anyone know where I might buy frame from. The rest of the plastic bits seem ok. Thanks, John

Welcome to the forum and welcome to leaky sunroofs 😀 you should be able to buy repair kits on eBay. I'm thinking of doing the same thing.


Something like this. Or you can do what most do and glue them shut! 😉
 
Sadly the bits don't repair the rusted frame.
You'll need a scrap vehicle to take one out of. Bolts to inside of roof. Then clean and paint with anti rust and fit along with a new seal. Check all drain pipes are clear or wet sits in frame.
 
The glass is bonded to the frame that rusts. New ones are now upwards of £400. You might get lucky with a good one from a scrapper though

Sorry, need to read things properly! Didn't realise you mentioned the frame!
