Thanks. Thought they looked like 60 series (maybe 70 series, wasn't sure)

No problem. Yeah they work pretty good and a vast improvement from OEM!

That sunroof cover looks the same as the one for my 87. I can get you some measurements of mine if you want.

Yes please! I'm waiting from the seller on their measurements. I wish mine did not have a sun roof as I can't stand the sun beating on my head!

 

[Kris]

Im not ambitious enough to get them to you tonight lol. I should be able to in the morning.

Did you guys get pretty wet there in DFW?

 

[The Jade Bean]

That's cool. Yes rain, rain and more rain! Stopped for now thankfully.

I used to have a Donaldson Top Spin H002437, but the clear plastic developed a crack. - I replaced it with a Cummins product that has received punishment unlike the fragile Donaldson.

Cummins Filtration AP8408


I was able to find the part numbers for the Donaldson and the Cummins by using the search function on my previous posts.

Thanks! Maybe I'll go that route when the Donaldson I have bites the dust. I'm also thinking of putting "line-x" on the actual snorkel since it's a knock off and maybe not super UV stable.

That's a huge snorkel can! Can you see around it? Lol. Trucks looking good bud. I'm looking at one tomorrow, finally! Will let you know if it pans out!

 

[The Jade Bean]

LOL! Cool bro, hope you get one so we can roll together!

So my sunroof cover measures 32 1/4" x 12 7/8" x 5/8"-ish. The cutout for the nob measured 11 3/4 (from the back face meaning it steps in 1 1/8")

The two white lines on mine are cheapo weather stripping to keep the cover from vibrating.

 

[The Jade Bean]

^^^Thank you!!! Hope I can get this one I'm looking at!

 

[The Jade Bean]

Is the sunroof cover a good price at $120? The guy says that's his rock bottom.

I sold one on eBay a couple of years ago, I got almost $100 for it, and I was shocked I got that much. $120 is too high, IMO.

My concern is I might not see another one anytime soon. I can't stand the sun coming down on me! Have another one to sell??

Pffftt... I wish! They are made out of unicorn hide, I think. They do pop up on eBay occasionally. Maybe make one out of luan or masonite?

 

[Kris]

Holy crap $120!!?? I guess I lucked out buying a 4runner with "unicorn blood". But still, that's ridiculous.

I was thinking of making something with cardboard and glue lol.

Actually, a super easy option would be just plastidip the glass. If it sucks or doesn't work, just peel it off. I've used it is different applications and it builds up a pretty good layer - enough that it would probably block out most/some sunlight. That and a can cost like $8?

 

[The Jade Bean]

Our 4R isn't amazing, but I'm gonna pass on that option (more "custom" than I want). Sell me yours!
