Abstract: A sunroof assembly includes a bracket removably attached to a sunroof panel and defining a cavity. The sunroof assembly also includes an endcap removably attached to the bracket that closes the cavity and maintains clearance between the sunroof panel and a deflector of the sunroof assembly by contacting the deflector as the sunroof panel moves between an open position, in which the deflector is in a raised position, and a closed position, in which the deflector is in a stowed position.

Abstract: A sunroof assembly includes a bracket configured for attachment to a sunroof panel. The sunroof assembly also includes a guiderail supporting movement of the bracket, whereby movement of the bracket causes movement of the sunroof panel. The sunroof assembly further includes a housing defining a housing wall, wherein the housing wall and the guiderail form a boundary wall separating a wet area of the sunroof assembly from a dry area of the sunroof assembly, and wherein the bracket straddles the boundary wall such that a first side of the bracket is located in the wet area and a second side of the bracket is located in the dry area.

Abstract: An assembly for a sunroof of a vehicle includes a longitudinal rail defining a longitudinal cavity having an opening. A bracket supports a first sunroof panel for movement along the rail, between a closed position and a fully open position. A portion of the bracket extends into the cavity opening and is movable along the cavity from a first side of a plane extending through a forward-most edge of the second sunroof panel to a second side of the plane opposite the first side of the plane, during movement of the first sunroof panel to the fully open position. Enabling the support bracket to move to the second side of the plane aids in maximizing the size of the sunroof opening when the panel is in the fully open position.
