Silly question I know, but I don't have an owners manual and I can't seem to figure out how to remove the sunroof. I know it comes out because there is a storage spot for it in the hood compartment.

You are inside the car. When you look at the handle/latch, there will be two little black buttons on either side. Press said buttons and pull on the handle/latch as though you're just popping it open. The handle should come out of the latch assembly. Now lift up the glass, and flip the handle under the glass. Now step outside, and slip your fingers under the glass by the latch, lift about 6 inches and slide back. It should slide out of the holes it pivots on. Now you can put it in the front compartment. The super easy part is getting it back in, good luck with that. By the way, I was being a tad sarcastic, but it's not terribly difficult. Just reverse everything that I just said.

You have to take off the metal cover where the latch is. Once you remove that one screw and the cover then you can puch in the two black buttons and the latch will pop out when you puch up on the glass. Now get out of the car and pull up and back on the glass from the rear and BAM! it slides out. Hope this helps. I just had to do it last weekend.

???? You shouldn't have to take the cover off unless the latch is bent or damaged..........

Hmmmm ...I hope that when it slides out, it isn't accompanied by that "BAM!" .
