Sunroof Replacement for 1980-1999 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur & Silver Spirit
If you own a Silver Spur or Silver Spirit from the 80s or 90s, you already know the factory sunroof seals don't last forever. When they dry rot and fail, water drips straight onto that beautiful Connolly leather and burr walnut interior. I've worked on plenty of these classic British luxury cars over the years, and replacing the sunroof glass isn't a job you hand off to a rookie. The tolerances are incredibly tight, and the old rubber gaskets are usually baked solid.
At AlexWindshield, we handle classic Rolls-Royce auto glass right in your driveway. Whether you have a Silver Spur tucked away in a garage in Vaughan, or a Silver Spirit needing a quick fix in Richmond Hill or Markham, we bring our mobile shop directly to you anywhere across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
How We Handle the Replacement Process
You don't just pry glass out of a classic Rolls-Royce. We follow a strict, hands-on process to make sure the job is done right the first time:
- Protecting the Interior: We start by covering your seats, dash, and center console with heavy-duty protective blankets. A single drop of old adhesive or a stray tool on that vintage leather is a bad day, so we take absolutely zero chances.
- Safe Removal: We carefully detach the old sunroof panel from the mechanical sliding track. Using specialized cold knives, we cut through the hardened factory sealants without putting a single scratch on your roof paint.
- Surface Cleaning: The metal frame gets scraped down completely. We remove every speck of the old glue, dirt, and hidden rust. If your drain tubes are clogged—which happens a lot on the 1980-1999 models—we blow them out while we have access.
- Primer Application: We brush a high-grade pinch weld primer over any exposed bare metal. This stops future rust dead in its tracks and gives the new adhesive a strong surface to bite into.
- High-Quality Adhesive Setup: Finally, we lay down a thick, consistent bead of premium automotive urethane. We set the new sunroof glass perfectly flush with the roofline, making sure wind noise and rain stay exactly where they belong—outside.
