Nice offer Jeff! Your plan to fabricate hatch slides has prompted me to reiterate a hint outlined much earlier in this topic, namely the advantage of covering the plastic tracks with thin stainless strips that prevent any future damage from above (either by blunt force or Ultraviolet deterioration). It seems that fabricating your new tracks to somehow accomodate a thin stainless strip on top might result in a really swell, superior solution over the factory design. Either way, please post any relevant info you might create in the process: for example what specific material, dimensions of the stock, width and location of the "slot", etc. This kind of data could help others quickly and easily replicate the effort.
