Here's what I just did...

I went to look at the sunroof motor assembly in the trunk.

What are these things for?

Is this some sort of plug for the antenna? I don't see where it could possibly be connected to....



What is this golden colored clip for? For the cables maybe?



================================================

Sunroof





1.) How do you secure the triangular-looking bracket onto the sunroof motor? Is there some kind of special washer or rubber grommet or something? The screw are 6mm I guess. The holes in the bracket are a lot bigger though...

2.) How is the bracket aligned to the mountings on the chassis? I'm guessing I to A and II to B, correct?
Also how do you mount it as the holes in the chassis are bigger than 6mm. Are there again washers of some sort that I'm missing?

Now...

the sunroof cable.
Is it really hard to R&R the sunroof cable? I mean I am really not mechanically inclined...

A mechanic told me that replacing the cable is easy but adjusting the sunroof so that it closes properly is the hard bit. Is this true?

BTW, I can't open the sunroof at all. Can I pull on the cable to open it or something?

Thanks

Merry Christmas everyone!
