I think I have a couple screws loose.................Causing my Sunroof to rattle
So I need some help. When I hit highway speeds I notice that my sunroof rattles quiet a bit. It only rattles when closed. When I open it the rattle goes away. I have checked the wind visor and it is not causing the rattling. I got up in the sunroof and it looks like I am missing a screw in each side. I have attached pictures for review. Can someone else check your sunroof and see if I am in fact missing a couple of screws?
Thanks,
Eric

My guess would be that it is not your sunroof.... rather the air problem on the outside of the A-Pillars where the plastic piece meets the windshield. It is a common problem on H2s at speeds over about 70.
Search the forum for air or wind noise...

I concur, I had that intermittently on my 06H2... It rarely did it, but i did notice when it did, it was when there was a strong cross wind blowing across the highway.

How do the plastic side pillars come off?

Well I went out and opened the sunroof on my 06 and no screws in those holes either. I fabricated a centre bracket to stabilize deflector and it still makes noise at 85 mph plus. I also siliconed deflector weatherstrip down with RTV silicone--can't say it helped.
