DIY: Loose Sunroof shade fix
I did not have this problem with the 2010 that I had briefly, but it was a problem from the start in the 2011....
The sunroof shade would slide backward about 2 inches open with any modestly rapid acceleration... very frustrating sunroof problem. I figured i could take it to the dealer and let them rip apart the roof, or I could find a simple way to take matters in my own hands... So, I took two small pieces of the felt-side of some velcro about 1/2 inch by 1/2inch and placed them in various spots around the sunroof shade track. Eventually, i found the right spot to get it to stay-put and to minimize the amount of 'lift' of the shade... Simple fix that took all of 10 minutes and most of that time was finding the right spots to get the right amount of resistance and minimal "lift" to the shade. Hope this helps out someone else with the same sunroof issue. Last edited by 13lade; 09-02-2010 at 11:34 PM. |

Camaro Sunroof
If anyone has a problem with the sunroof just let me know I can help.
My company makes the sunroof for the Camaro. The fix your doing does not need to be done. I can tell you a better way to fix your problem and why it happened. |

The velcro can easily be peeled off if there is a better way.... I'd appreciate any advice you can offer.
