Finally, Solve the problem! sunroof rattle free!!

I have driven the car for around 2k miles and try to figure out what's the problem. During this period, I have tried let the dealer look into it and they said they checked everything they can, but nothing they can do since I don't want them to take the whole sunroof out.

But!!!! Finally, I get rid of the annoying sunroof/headliner rattle today!

Here's some pictures. I did it simply with coupe drop of superglue.

The part that rattle is the plastic panel, which can be touched if you just lift it open. And can be see when you opened it completely.

Here's some pics.

Love to see the pictures. I had a problem with too large pictures early on.
Have you tried reducing the picture size?

I'd be interested too, the rattle in my sunroof is definitely temperature-dependent (it needs to be warm, upper 60s to 70s).

But the noise is when the sunroof is closed or open? or both?

Rubber seal came loose on mine and it was flapping at speeds over 60.
Had to tape it down until I could get it reglued.

I actually quite like it!! Reminds me of the Poulsen Artichoke lamp, too, which is über-cool
