Default sunroof conversion

Does anyone have a link to either diagrams, pictures or a tutorial on how to convert your electric sunroof to manual?

I have removed everything ( motor, drive cable,guide tubes) but cant figure out what to do with the back sliding latchs.

Here's a good website with pictures, etc.

http://www.sidv.org/manualsunroof.htm

Search is your friend, this is a topic that's been frequently covered.

Good luck with the conversion, I did mine about 2 years ago and haven't looked back.

remove the slider cover and the slider itself, leave the thicker section bolted to the car.

on the sunroof panel, remove the two latch receivers (two screws apiece) and replace them with the manual sunroof latches (they go in the same place and use the same screws)

install the roof like normal, and the manual latches clamp down on the thicker slider box
