ben16v 0 Posted June 14, 2007 you have to remove the entire roof lining and take the whole mechanism out, then you can get to the screws for the panel, bit of a ballache but shouldnt take more than an ofternoon, getting it lined up when refitting is a righjt pain though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
