Source of dead sunroof motor?

I got around this weekend to disassembling my sunroof motor. Cable is good, motor is good, but unfortunately the gear driven by the motor's screw is completely ground down. I think the previous owner (college kid) tightened the clutch adjustment as tight as he could in order to make the sunroof work, rather than cleaning out all the old crudded up grease and lubricating things, and the motor chewed the gear up. Otherwise everything is solid. It looks like the bad news is that while it's possible to order motors, cables, or complete assemblies, I don't see anybody selling just the one gear I need to replace.

Anybody know where I could get a replacement, or just a dead motor assembly that could be robbed of it's good gear?

Thanks!

Ben

Sunroof

Sorry to hear about this...

Probably you can get one out of a junk yard and definitely Mercedes can get you what you need. they can look it up on an online database of diagrams.

I have all the parts you need. Send me a private message and we can talk.

Have a great day!
