Sliding Roof
The sliding roof has an exterior encapsulated glass

slide operation. The sunshade is available in two
colours to match the headlining. Note that the
sunshade cannot be closed if the sliding roof is in
the fully open position or has been partly closed
from the fully open position; this is because the

sunshade pull-cup, the sliding roof must be fully
closed. Special screws are used in some locations.

supplied in packs, do not use any other screws
than those supplied. Low battery voltage may
prevent operation of the sliding roof although the
relays may be heard operating. The sliding roof
cannot be fitted as a retrofit item.
