Are the Sunroofs different on the Bonneville models?
I noticed on Harofreaks car that his sticks up over the top.
Mine goes inside the roof.

Haro'* sunroof cannot get over the top,
theres just 2 position for the 2000+ sunroof, inside the top or pop up like SSsuperchargedEi said.
to pop up the sunroof, just push down the button like you want to make it roll like a wheel going forward. ( sorry , thats the only way i found to explain lol )

Took me 2 years to finaly discover that

Checked mine out this morning, all it does is drop down to slide in.
Maybe i'll check the manual see what it says.

It took someone else I know with a 2000 SSEi a whole year before he found out how to do it.
You have to push the switch up to tilt the glass up and down to close it. You slide the switch back and forth to slide the glass open and closed.
Play with it.
If that doesn't work, then it'* broken.
