Need Sunroof Slide Mechanism (HNA1752AA) Solution
Hello everyone,
I just bought (yesterday) my 4th R-Type...a one-owner 2003 XJR with 60,000 miles on it. It's so new (to me) that I haven't even taken a pic of it yet.
When I was driving it home, I opened the sunroof but the rear (smaller) panel was disconnected and wouldn't slide back in. I checked the forum (of course) and learned how to fish it out successfully. Well, once I had the main panel out, I could see that small arm with the pin on the arm of PN HNA1752AA (R sunroof slide) was significantly bent.
I tried to gently straighten it...but you know what happened (and I knew it would probably happen when I was doing it). So, now I need that small arm or most likely the entire slide but it has been discontinued.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this repair accomplished?
Thanks!

NEVER try to bend the arm!!! It is a CAST part!!!!
I always bend the fulcrum pin to get the same outcome.
The TILT/SLIDE mechanisms used to be about $83 each back when I worked at the dealer.
I called my buddy in the parts dept. about 2010 and found out that the price had gone to almost $300 EACH.
good luck with your search.
