Has anybody noticed a small dent on roof from sunroof?
I was wondering how many other people have got a small dent inbetween the sunroof and drip rail on the drivers side. It looks like somebody pushed down on it
and made a shallow 3" dent. The reason I ask is we have a couple of othe cars
including my own with this same indentation, in the same place. Under the haedliner right in the middle of these dents is a locating pin for the factory to install the sunroof, and I wodered how many other people might have the same
thing. It almost looks as if the sunroof movement over time moves this pin some
and dishes it in. I have and expensive paint and body work done and know that
it has never been hit in this area, so I am trying to find a fix for this in the future.
This just showed up again after couple of years after repair was fixed prior.
I only have a couple of rx7 sunroof cars to compare. Thanks Ralph

On a different note: as for the dent, I've never noticed anything like that on any RX-7 I've ever looked at. Could you take a picture for us?
