I've ended up with what someone told me is one of the motors for the convertible top. I'm trying to identify where it goes and what it would cost to replace. It is Mopar Part # 1-05166559AA. Marked: "Made in German / A1937500384"

Can anyone identify this for me and let me know what it is worth. Maybe if someone here needs it they might be able to save a bunch of money. I don't think I'd want to hang onto it for my Crossfire, "just in case", although if it turns out to be a part that commonly goes out then I may hang onto it.

I hate replying to my own threads but in this case it is just to add information even though no one ever replied.

I finally broke down and called my Chrysler dealer today (March 26, 2010) and had them look up the part for me.

Part # mopar 1-05166559AA
"Convertible top latch with micro switch.
Price from the dealer???? = $569 !!!!!!!!!!!

When I first got my Roadster a dealer had come up with this part extra and as at that time it listed for $700, (Yup $700 just for this part) and he cut me a pretty good deal on it. I being the cautious type and a bit of a hoarder just had to have it so I picked it up knowing that if anything was going to go bad on the convertible top this would be it. I paid quite a bit less than the $700 and I looked at it as some insurance for when the car was out of warranty. Last year I required a major surgery and unfortunately I had to sell my beloved Roadster so now I have no use for this unit. Wife lost her job last June and hasn't been able to find another so for the time being I've got to sell anything I can.

I'll be posting it on e-Bay today. In the near future I'll also be posting the Crossfire floor mats, locking lug nut set, two custom WindRestrictors, a tire pump and a few other odds and ends. If anyone is interested in any of them just give me a yell at sheldon@sheldonaubut.com or watch e-Bay for their posting.

 

Hey Buddy, We've been wondering where you went. Missed you at the last few meets. How much you want for it?

Take care,

Rudy
