If you go the disable route the repair takes less than 5 minutes...

Rob, how did you do this? Just unplug a connector or something? Where is it done?
I've got a very rattly pano roof and so I need to see what needs to be fixed, but I'm like you, the back pannel does nothing for me and it only causes the main window to bind up when opening I find and thats whats caused my pano roof to now be rattly i bet, so onec I fix it, I want to disable that back window sheet from moving again.
