Only front and rear seals are available for your SD sunroof gasket. I'll know in a few weeks whether the 86+ can be made to work.

SEM has at least a color close to Palomino.

Sem had the identical color for my gray interior. It was matched at Finishmasters here in Greenville. Greg, the man who helped me at FM, handed me back the swatch I'd given him the day before and I couldn't find the paint spot on it. After spraying a door panel on the second coat I realized that if there is a better product than SEM on the market no one would know.

I am impressed beyond words with SEM's paint. But I warn anyone who decides to paint vinyl. Ammonia will do anything the SEM XXX 77774 cleaner will do. After scrubbing the vinyl with a scotchbrite pad using ammonia and Ivory Liquid the 77774 took nothing else off. Greg at FM told me ammonia was the right solvent for anything on vinyl. He was so correct but I used SEM despite professional advise.

I also used SEM vinyl prep. It took nothing else off for the solution of ammonia and Ivory left nothing.

As far as the sunroof work, I sure am glad someone is going through that project. The FSM is greek to me on how to disassemble and repair a sun roof.

I look forward to speaking with you about your experience with this project.
