sunroof microswitches+pictures
I've got a late 85 and my sunroof has been acting up since I got it. At first, it just wouldn't lock where it was supposed to, and would go from fully unlocked to fully open with the key in position 1 OR 2 and not stop anywhere in between. Now it's the same, but it won't open all the way and I've had enough.
As a lte 85, its got an EARLY model sunroof assy, right? Which would mean it has 2 microswitches, and in my case, both need to be aligned. I've tore the whole assy apart and I'm just plain lost. I don't know where these switches are even though I'm apparantly staring right at them, and I can't get the motor assembly off. Can anyone help?

Well, I found the switches, along with the problem. They weren't out of alignment (well, not much anyway) but the plastic piece that trips the switches had come unlatched from the slider.
As 20 year old plastic does, the slider broke when I tried to put it back together. I got some epoxy and it's drying right now. I think/hope this post will help the dummies like me that just don't get it.
