buzz Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 My 1991 Terrano has a factory fitted sunroof that unfortunately with the ravages of time and weather, has cracked/perished the rubber seal on it's hinged edge. This rubber seal appears to have been extruded directly onto the glass edge - not added as a separate sealing strip. I want to check if any D21 Pathfinders are fitted with same glass sunroof and if any one has fixed this problem before?? I don't want to import a complete glass panel from Japan because of a bit of damaged rubber ... it will cost big bucks!!! I have done a quick fix with black silicone but would appreciate any other ideas to give a professional finish. Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gacruiser Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 My 91 Pathfinder has the factory sunroof, and the outer gasket is breaking up near the hinges, as well. I ordered a new gasket from Brown & Brown Nissan in Tempe, AZ, but haven't installed it yet. It appears that the new gasket slides over the edge of the glass, and I'm assuming it will have to be glued on. I'll be changing it out in the next few weeks, so will let you know how it goes.

buzz Posted July 9, 2004 Author Share Posted July 9, 2004 I phoned Nissan Australia in Adelaide and sales guy told me gasket was $148.00 (Aust) ex Japan .... Does that sound expensive compared with Brown and Brown Nissan in Tempe AZ or do you think he has quoted wrong part??? Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gacruiser Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 That sounds extremely high. I can't recall how much I paid, but it was probably half of what you were quoted (maybe $40US?). I'll see if I can find the receipt. Failing that, you can get an online quote at the following website: http://www.autonation.com/dealers/brown/grubb-tempe/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz Posted July 9, 2004 Author Share Posted July 9, 2004 Can you find the Nissan part no for the gasket and then I can check cost for item in Australia. Sounds like I might have been quoted wrong part?? Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gacruiser Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Couldn't find my receipt, so I had the local Nissan parts counter look it up for me. I believe it's called a "Glass Protector"? He quoted the part #73872-01610. Locally, the gasket is $75. You might also try a couple of online resources: https://www.rockauto.com/dbphp/mak,Nissan http://www.nissanautobodypartstore.com/cgi...nder-parts.html http://www.trademotion.com/partlocator/ind...=49&catalogid=0 The latter site has the gasket for $43US. I can't take credit for the above sites, the users on this board found them long before I came along. HTH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gacruiser Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 "He quoted the part #73872-01610." Oooopsss! I just looked at the parts bag. The correct number is: 73872-01G10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
