CLK350 manual sunroof retract info
I need to go to a salvage yard to find something I've been looking for for a while, the slider for the sunroof it makes it so the sun can't peek through the glass and heat up the car.
I am looking for some advice on how to manually slide the sunroof back because in order to get access to the slider. The glass sunroof has to go back for access.
Now I just watched a video on the overhead console where the sunroof motor is located and you just pop the plastic light cover off the look for two clips and that overhead comes out.
I am puzzled on the type of nut where you could put maybe a torx head in spin the sunroof motor with a ratchet and the sunroof should go backwards manually. I just need to know what tools to bring with me ,what tool causes the motor to go forward or backwards in the event that there's a problem with the motor there has to be some information out there somewhere with the right size torx or wrench or screwdriver
