pete... can u buy the RL or TL switch and jes swap it and modify it some how ... would that work.. instead of using all the relays n timers?

Does anyone know if the 03' TL had an automatic open/close sunroof because the part looks almost the same as the one for the TSX. I know they moved the controls for the TL to the roof and the part is alot bigger. Check this link out, it shows the sunroof switch as #7 and looks to be deeper than the switch on the TSX.

Damn, at this rate, it might be easier to work out a circuit board and throw some ICs on it instead of having to go with a set of big relays.

I don't know... it looks the same to me.

I have no idea what these switches even look like. Do they allow you to open close the roof by 1 touch?

Instead of the 2 SPDT relays you can find a dual relay of a smaller amperage. I know Radio Shack used to carry different types few years back. All those 2 relays are needed for is just to disconnect 2 separate circuits while the 528T is active. And again, you don't even need to put those in if you are 100% certain you will never press the Close ot Tilt buttons when the roof is automatically opening.

Well, what I was hoping for is to have two sets of switches, one for the standard usage and one for the 1-touch.

But what I also want is to be able to stop the 1-touch by pressing one of the standard switches, similar to what the driver's side door has.

The problem is now I have to incorporate logic to have the standard switches break the circuit for the 1-touch switch when they activate. And this goes on top of all the relays that are already needed. Will probably get pretty messy, which is why I'm wondering if a circuit board might work better.

Of course, this is just all theoretical for me.

Yes, I understood what you were talking about. You'd still need a "miracle" switch for that. This could of course all be done with relays, but as you said, it'd be very messy. Circuit board would be a good solution, but I definitely can't do it.

they are on the roof in between the map lights and they are a "finger button" sort of like our window buttons... only u point ur finger up and push foward , backward or inward(i believe)

maybe we can jes get the relay?

i got no clue ... helpin u ponder and see if they work hah

what if u bought the entire TL OR RL motor, relays, switch n throw it on our cars hahaa

Or just F it and trade your ride for the TL

I don't know. You'd have to show me the switch and OEM wiring schematics of the roof in TL or RL. Then I'd know if it's possible and how to do it.
