Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Does this motor work on both sides of the roof? A: Yes, it is listed for left or right installation, so one unit can serve either side of the roof assembly.

Q: Will I need to reset the roof after installing the motor? A: Many power roof systems require a calibration or reinitialization step after a motor swap, so check your service information before the final test.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
