I'm pretty sure you can take your VIN to the honda dealer and get a new key cut for it. Should only be like $5-$10 tops

All you need to do it run hot line to the sunroof switch and it will close for you. Or you can disassemble your ignition and turn it on with a screwdriver.

Can't u just lus a wrench? I have never used a wrench and don't know if the car has to be turned on for the wrench to be able to close the sunroof.

If you have the owners manual it says how to close it manually. There is a plug in the roof, pop that out. There should be a skrew or a nut, cant remember, and you just turn that and close it by hand.

there is a manual way to do it as said above.

im sure its not a 17mm its a small nut...something that can fit on the end of a screwdriver type attachment.

Back toward the dome light,there is a plug with a slot in it.
Turn to slot parallel to the car and remove the plug.

Under the plug,there is a place for a 5mm allen socket
and there should be a tool included within
the kit for changing the tire...
