the motion sensor and the light housing are one unit on the cars with pano roof, which are facelifted models.. they are separate units on the regular sunroof, which can be any model in the year range...

assuming from the absense of information that you provided, you have a pano roof and therefore a single sensor/light unit...

there are 4 (or 6) torx screws that are holding the assembly to the ceiling... you take an old credit card and pry the little cover from the sensor, it is held in by the plastic tabs... under that cover you will find two of the torx screws..

using your fingers, pry the interior light assembly from the overhead console - the reading lights and the main light are "separated" from the sunroof switch/microphone/SOS switch, and you can press your fingers in that area and pull the light section at an agle away from you towards the glass... once the light assembly is off, the microphone section will come off as well... there are remaining 2 (or 4, i just don't remember) torx screws...

and like the QS said - have a signature line to help us to help you...
