Hi all. In the process of putting my e24 back together after paint, I found out that both left and right plastic sunroof guides were shot. After almost 40 years, the plastic had shrunk enough to break both ends around the metal nuts. These seem to be NLA, and, if I could find a set, who knows how long they would have lasted.
So, I had a new set made out of Delrin with stainless inserts. These are BMW # 54121843429 (left) and 54121843430 (right). There are CNC machined out of Delron, not 3D printed.
Anyone else interested? They should fit a large number of cars:
3' E21 (03/1976 — 12/1982)
5' E12 (02/1972 — 07/1981)
5' E28 (09/1980 — 12/1987)
6' E24 (06/1976 — 04/1989)
7' E23 (10/1976 — 11/1989)
I'm gauging interest to see if it would be worth while to have a larger batch made.
