Talking about the manual tilt one?

Unclip it and take it off (takes 10 secs). Then check the drain holes are unblocked and use 100% (or as close as you can to, 100% is impossible....divers O-Ring grease cheap) silicone grease around all the rubber.

Weld a plate in is getting more and more appealing to me, would sort out that sunroof rattle as well.

Don't cover the drain holes (OBVIOUSLY) and the roof rattle should be fixed with the silicone. Also tighten up all the star nut things. You can wrap some soft rubber around the "bar"/handle which can stop the rattle too.

One fix = free (or £3 for decent grease) and you keep your sunroof. Other fix £100s.
