Sail panel replacement My 99 SS has 30k and spends most of its life in my garage and because of that, the bubbles and ripples in the sail panel have not been a problem until recently. I am noticing the little pimples and ripples in the sail panel and I am pissed! The panel is obviously discontinued as everyone knows...I have read a post about the 6LE one not fitting very well, has anyone else had good luck with thier panel from 6LE? Has anyone had any luck actually removing one from a pre-98 car? How are you doing it? Are there any shops doing it and selling them?
I have removed several from wrecked cars at salvage yards with piano wire. It's somewhat of a work out but I can get one cut off in an hour or so. If you are good with your hands and somewhat familiar with tools you can probably do this yourself.
If I can do it at my shop I use my heat inductor and it on takes a few minutes. I do have a couple pre 98 cars with good sail panels that I would remove and sell.
