Reply to "my new wheels..."

The slats came from one of our fellow PI Forum members. I bought them a few years ago after posting a "Parts Wanted" message. Sorry, I don't know who made them but I do remember that I was told they are no longer made.
There are two types of Pantera slats that I have seen. Mine mount on top of the deck lid. They are aluminum...and they rattle! Not enough to be heard inside the car, but kinda irritating just the same. I thought of oozing some black silicone where each slat intersects the center brace, but then I could never paint it again (you know what I mean if you've fought silicone contamination on a painted surface).
The other type mount down in the recess of the deck lid. Those babies are really nice! No rattling with them. They mount so cleanly that they seem to be suspended in the opening. Beautiful! Once again, I was told that they are no longer in production.
I think your best bet is to start inquiring on all the boards to see if you can scare a set up. I think I paid $300 for mine and a set of the really nice ones was offered at $1000 once. That might help you determine their potential value if you find some.
Good luck, Mooso.
