Hi guys, u mob must be sick of my q's by now....
I have a ford maverick xlt with the nissan sunroof. I'm wodering whteher u can take the glass section out as the front and rear latches have three points at which if u move them it exposes a red section (a warning??), is this right and if so how do u do this??
Thanx

raise the sunroof, undo the front clip to show red, then press the 2 buttons either side of the handle that raises the sunroof and push the sunroof up, should clip out and swivel open, then sunroof glass slides to the left and out of its mounts. But just a warning, its a real mungrel to get the handle part back in, and also i have heard word that the glass is bloody expensive, like to the tune of $800, so be careful

Got a factory sunroof in my Nissan, same style and handle system that Marin mentioned. Its not too bad to get the sunroof back in but the handle can be a pain in the rear esp. at night time with little light.
The red just means that the glass is able to be moved and lon longer locked in place. Yes real expensive to replace unless you can find one at a wreckers but still its a touch costly. Don't roll it over onto its roof
