electric sunroof
fitting guide for elecy sunroof from veccy to cav HELP cheers,dave
Re: electric sunroof
never fitted a vec one but ive done cav one in a cav and basically earthed it out on the brown to the screw that holds the surround on and then tapped the live into the interior light - technically its a bodge but it works fine, the propper connector for the sunroof is at the base of one of the pillars but all it really needs is a live and an earth
Its a case of unbolting the winder and bolting the motor in its place, took me about 10mins to do anitas cav sunrood

Re: electric sunroof
If you're messing about fitting an electric sunroof, why don't you fit the one touch electric roof from an Omega? It's a pretty simple job and is a lot more user friendly than the Cav roof. All you need is the motor from an Omega. There's a how-to somewhere, if you're interested let me know and I'll find you a link or something.
Re: electric sunroof
I've got it bookmarked at home I'll upload the link tonight

Re: electric sunroof
one touch is a lot more complicated, cos you have to run a an extra wire -ohhh very hard lol
But the cav one in the cav is possibly the simplest fitting one ive ever done.

Re: electric sunroof
Problem with the vectra sunrunroof motor is that the cog doesnt sit deep enough into the hope to turn efectively and thus can cause slippage (ie wonky sunroof)
