Hey guys (and girls), I pulled the sunroof cassette out this evening and found the reason it will not move, rust.
I need some sunroof parts. I searched here and found this thread
https://forum.ih8mud.com/60-series-wagons/534071-cheap-new-oem-toyota-parts.html
(and then visited all of the linked dealers, and performed an internet search as well) and the cheapest parts total is about $481 (without shipping)
I need part #s
63223-60030 (cable-right) $192.10
63224-60030 (cable-left) $192.10
63221-60030 $96.88
(the last I believe to be correct according to the dealer parts diagram, it is the cable guide assembly for a 2000 LC)
This particular cruiser sat for months with clogged sunroof drains, which backed up and leaked into the cable tubes, which caused the cables to rust inside and now they will not budge. I have tried soaking them in rost off (wurth product) and they are not moving. The local dealer wanted $317 per rail (found them for $192 each online) and I didn't even ask about the cable guide (hence I am not positive on the part #)
This particular dealer did give me wholesale cost on the transmission for my wife's sequoia a few months ago. Though this time, they "helped" me out by reducing the price from $317 to $297... gee thanks guys...
Anyway, if $481 is the cheapest available, I will have to get them, but if someone has a dealer connection, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Micah
