roof removal and A pillar, and door lock motor

[Blanik_SHO]

So this week end I will try to repair my sunroof problem that a lot of people got. the sunroof stop working and the windows so i unplug my sunroof switch and everything got ok....

but now i have to get my sunroof open for the warm season

so i need advice to remove the roof near the panel switch in direction of passanger side and the passanger A pillar cover. I just ask because i don't want to break anything


i'll give you hint after ........thank

P.S. i'll also change my door lock motor by the same time......does someone alrady change this, since the motor in the door is "fix" in plac with a rivet, do we have to drill it first??? and put a metal screw after that??

I can tell you the rear will pop out of that bracket, without removing the rivet. Just get a small flat screwdriver, and it'll pop out of that bracket. Now the other end can be fun, I think with the right pair of plyers you could get it out, but I'm going to take out the locking mechanism all together to get the thing out. I screwed my doorpanel back on and forgot about it, was doing my brakes at that time, and had other problems to attend to. Just havent finished it.

thank for the lock motor, i'll try with a screwdriver first if it don't work i'll just drill the rivet and put a bolt and nut after that.
