Does anybody have a seal for a sun roof as the inner part of my seal is breaking? Any help appreciated

Do you think it would be easier replacing the whole thing then?

the seal around the sunroof glass normally doesn't fully keep water out, it's like a porous foamy sponge that lets water trickle down onto the draining channels.
so if it's a little dinged it ain't bad, more important to make sure ur sunroof drainage channels & pipes are all clear of any debris.
think the foamy seal is bonded to the glass and don't think the seal's sold separately. the glass itself is simply bolted to the sunroof mechanism with torx bolts and its easier to just replace the glass assembly which is bout £50 ebay I think.
no need to replace the whole sunroof which is a hassle.
here's the whole disassembly as reference
