in the kit that comes with the car, there is a tire iron and other misc. stuff, and one of the things it comes with is a giant z shaped allen wrench looking thing. You need that tool to wind it i believe. my car has one, but i have never used it, so i dont know much about it from there.

That is correct. There is square(?) shaped tool in there. Look on the ceiling behind the seats (I believe behind the ceiling light?) and there should be a round plug. Pull that out of the ceiling and you will see that port for the tool that is in your jack kit. Just stick the tool in the port and close her up.

regular allen wrench should work too, if you don't have the tool. just spin and pop the cap on the access hole by the dome light to see it

@sanimalp: wtf are u talking about? lol

well ok this is a joke honestly dude. turn the little cap on the ceiling and pop that off, then pop off two other ceiling pieces. then the left and right side, and after that the ceiling should fall down (its super light). pull the ceiling out of the way (u might wanna open ur trunk lol). then ul see all the bolt and the sunroof tray. its like legos dude so ez.

The tool kit that comes with the car has a tire iron, a screwdriver, the jack attachment, and the sunroof tool. Its a large Z shaped allen, pop off the grey cover and crank away

Just incase anyone like was wondering the size of the allen wrench needed is a 5mm. At least that is what was needed for my 2000 Honda Accord stuck sunroof.
