Wiring loom, switch, headlining panel, motor, mounting plate complete with cable guide tubes.

Let me know if you want a full kit as I have them available.

How difficult to actually fit - is it very fiiddly?

Not really a bad job. Less fiddly than you would presume.

Can you jot down the procedure real quick?

I'm sure daniele30 would benefit too.

Cheers.

Might not be 100% comprehensive, but it gives you the general procedure:

- Open sunroof
- Remove front air-spoiler
- Remove strip securing headlining panel to sunroof aperture
- Unbolt ends of cable guides from body
- Unbolt manual mechanism and withdraw the from the cables
- Close the sunroof
- Feed cables into guide tubes of new mechanism (which needs to be in the fully closed position)
- Run loom down LH A pillar to the accessory socket above the glovebox
- Bolt it all back together, using the new headlining panel

Just a general warning - there are LOTS of nasty sharp bits in sunroofs which WILL cut you!

Awesome. Cheers.

yup i've remove the sun roof for cleaning & re-spray back.

by reading is really hard to remove the sun roof, i bet u didn't do it after reading this.... do u ???

Just happened upon this.

I'm going to do this this WE (can document for the zone) just one question.

Where does that huge motor possibly fit in the roofskin? Or does it go where the manual winder goes?
