Anyone here BTDT? I need to do this before my scheduled repaint. I'm

Repair of the older sliding sunroof is a breeze. The pop-up roof is
another matter entirely and it's VERY easy to turn a flaw with a simple
fix into a problem that will cost a great deal to repair. The factory
manual (even with Dave's addendum) is NOT sufficient to instruct most
novice DIYers on how to fix the sunroof (in MY opinion). The guys that
have repaired a dozen or more of them can make it look EASY, but it's
NOT something you're likely to be able to perform after just reading the
manual and several of the common mistakes can result in the repair
becoming MUCH MORE EXTENSIVE AND EXPENSIVE.
