    Sunroof seal source

    Is there an online supplier that sells the sunroof seal? I see online the dealer still sells them, but there isn't really a BMW dealer anywhere near me.

    -thanks

    I got mine recently from getbmwparts.com. I have ordered a ton of parts from them with no issues and are always a competitive price.

    Hmmm. now I'm confused.

    On the site you suggested it shows only one part for the sunroof seal. However on other sites I've looked at it is shown as a front and back half seal. Admittedly gtbmwparts.com seems to only go back to 1985, and my car is an 83, so maybe 85 used a different seal????

    From what I have gleaned my car lists as these two parts,
    54121920052

    54121870086


    What parts did you use?

    It took me a bit to look this up but those were the 2 I bought. I have an 85 and from what I saw the seals were the same throughout and included E32's as well. Can't say how they worked since I am still awaiting the car from the paint shop.

    Cool, I ordered a set of supposedly OEM BMW ones off of eBay, we'll see what they are when they get here. Thanks for your help
