W124 Coupe, How do you remove the electric sunroof motor?

[MBK]

Hi All,

I'm looking to buy a second hand motor for my sunroof, now how do i remove the old motor, so far today i have removed the 2 10mm bolts holding the motor in place, now i'm stumped to how the motor comes out, it has a cylinderical pipe attached on both ends, i assume this is for the track to move through.

Anyone removed this before?? any help welcome..

Thanks in advance

This is for an older model W123 but principles/stripdown are very similar. PeachPartsWiki: Sunroof Repair
