Unknown piece from sunroof.
Hello all,

I was cleaning the sunroof and this white piece came from the front inside. I have no idea what it is or whether it needs to be there.

Needed? Not needed? Help would be appreciated!

No it's not needed. I had that...couldn't figure out what it was either, but it's been out now for a while.
I think it's just packing material that got left in.

+1 - you have a Webasto sliding roof - The dealer is supposed to take that out at the predelivery service - throw it away.
