Patrick,
My 86kcs sunroof is broken also.  But it was my understanding that if one had
a choice of rebuiding the sunroof or rebuilding the auto trans, one would be
wise to rebuild the transmission.  Would you please write some dissasembly
instructions for doing this.  I know I would use them!

Thanks,
