So Shadow, has it worked OK since? Maybe the ones not working were broke at the GM plant installimg It took a very light touch to get the unbroken tab off intact? And quite a few were discovered broken from the get go.

Well I was bringing my car in for other things and I told the gy that my wind deflector was low and needed to be adjusted. He said that it was cracked and needed to be replaced. Go figure?

Just took a look at mine when I got home today. It appears to be working just fine and I don't see any cracks. I bought mine used about a year ago though and it may have been fixed prior to sale.

wow. thats what'* broken on my sunroof.
i can still open and close it, but to get it closed the whole way i have to push the little clip back in on the drivers side and it makes a bad crack noise.

how much are those things to get fixed? I die without having my roof open and I'm really sick of getting my fingers stuck when i close it. plus my dad is going to shoot me when he finds out it'* broken.... never let your friends hang out of your sun roof on the highway. not a good idea at all.

Mine appears to be okay. It'* a pretty flimsy setup...I can see how it would break easily.

Lacey I dont know how much but tou ought to remove it (easy) till you can get a new deflecto. It is not needed for operation or seal of moonroof and if you leave like it is it'* going to get caught and look like Harofreaks pic
