One thing I noticed after fiddling around with the sunroof is that it has a tilt setting too (not bad after owning it for 2 years). There's a plastic drip tray in the back that was loose on one side. I snapped it into the post, but after going back and forth it came loose again on one side. Anyone has any experience with this?
Interesting, mine has been trouble free for 20 yrs...broken plastic clip/fastner of some sort? Hope I didn't just jinx myself. Be careful with blowing the drains out as the rubber drain lines simply stretch over a tapered/knurled nipple on the sunroof tray. Its just a friction fit, which I can see popping off with compressed air into a restricted tube.

I've heard of guys snaking them with weedeater line.

Since my headliner pan was out this week I pulled each tube and made sure they were clear (blew thru them), then re-secured them to the nipples. The A pillar covers come off pretty easily.
