Default Sunroof/light console on roof.......

I was wondering if anyone else had the problem of the plastic sunroof console that houses the cabin lights falling. A while ago it started to hang a little now, but now it looks about to fall off. I havent been able to look to see how its secured (looks like more of those stupid clips audi uses so much). Anyone fixed this before or have any ideas?

Tabs are busted. You need a new panel. Fairly common actually.

The panel is supposed to be removed by pulling the front edge down, however, the plastic tabs at the rear edge are usually broken because someone tried to pry it off. Mine was broken that way.

I bought a used part for about $75 complete with sunroof switch and light from:

Give them a call. They're very helpful. Good luck.

Yep, plastic tabs break off. I used some of the adhesive velcro on mine and it has been working fine for 3 years believe it or not.

Default Try this

This is how I fixed mine, need a broken CD, 2 1/4" picture hanger tabs, a little crazy glue and you'll have it as good as new.
