I have a 97 740IL with a powershade that just stopped working today. It make no noise or attempt to move. I have checked the fuse, but I don't know what to do next.
Your local dealer would definatley have the part. But since everybody thnks the dealerships are "stealerships" then somebody else would have a better understanding of where to find what you're looking for.
Possibly Bavarian Auto?
Sorry, I have only driven a 745Li..with a rear-window powershade.
