Unhappy Hack to fix w205 panoramic sunroof

Does anyone know of a way to fix the common and dreaded sunroof issue on the w205s? I have an out of warranty 2017 C63 and my roof recently made the noise we all fear and won't close fully now. I just think there HAS to be another way because everything works except for that final motion of tucking the roof in and I really don't want to pay $1200 for that. I've attached videos showing where mine goes wrong and the little plastic piece that I have found. I have looked through all of the threads and have not found a single HACK, everyone is saying fix the rails. If you have some method of doing it without replacing both rails, please let me know, thanks.

Are any of the travel parts broken? There is another thread already on sunroof repairs.
