Every time I open the roof and check, the plastic cover on the actuator on both sides has popped off, I push it back on so the two lugs go fully into the holes on the shiny black part below, but it keeps coming off.


does everyones do this?

What Screws!!!!

Genuine questions, should there be screws?

Can you take a photo of yours please, anyone?

That's the new T7 California the OP is referring to?

Well, in the OP's picture, I can still see a hole for what looks like a screw.
Maybe if I see a picture from underneath and on top of the issue, I can judge better?
Maybe other ones with a T7 can show pictures of how it is on theirs? So far, none have done it.

To me, the shiny black part on the right side had cracks in it,
so the tension on the left part could be differed, not clamping enough anymore, resulting in getting loose.
