I’ve cracked it…!
Now I know all you regular readers will be thinking “what’s the fool broken now?” But not so. I have actually cracked how the sunroof works. I had a couple of eureka moments, put it together and, wahey, a fully functional sunroof.
I am particular pleased because there is nothing about it in the service manual, and although it’s supposedly a Mercedes part, nothing on the internet about it at all.
All in all a productive weekend on the farm and a good way to spend my birthday!

Hatches battened down
The next job will be the aircon unit followed by the wiring..
FIGAROtively speaking….
Phil’s little Japanese classic is finished and looking gorgeous. Sadly he wants to sell it to fund a rather serious upgrade of his Nissan Pulsar. Annoyingly my camera ran out of battery before i could get a photo of it.
