04 HSV VY update Avalanche
Is it possible? I've just bought a vy update (vz) avalanche and the sunroof always closes, my mates ve caprice can stay open after the ignition is turned off, can we do it to help let out the hot air? I only want it tilted up a fraction.

I suspect your mate's VE has been modded. My E3 Senator auto shut when the key came out of the ignition just the same as my VZ does. One thing though - I find the VZ a faaaaaaaaaaaar better unit than the VE/E series one.

That'd be cool drawn. Rock around my place and show me how to do it :)

go contact a sunroof place about it to see if they can retrofit it :p
just remembered about it when I spoke to someone about it and they told me it closes upon sensing rain.

and you want me to do it for you and bring bourbon.
yeah nah.
also, too far away ;)

anything is possible. how handy are you with circuit diagrams and soldering? i can look at the circuit diagram to show you how to change it, but youll have to "like" this post or ill forget about it forever

if youve never used a soldering iron or dont know how to read a diagram, then dont "like" it and we'll just pretend like it never happened.

On my EL XR6, all i did was cut and tape up the smartlock immobiliser trigger connection to the sunroof which would normally auto close the sunroof.

The sunroof was then able to be left up in whatever height i wanted.

Maybe thats all it needs.
Dunno though but worked for me in the XR6
