        That would be me.  Yes the motor works in tilt and slide, it has
stops at each position so that it doesn't go past.  I got my motor out of an
Audi 4000(Ithink), since I preferred the cover for the motor in this car.
Be warned:  Once you start, you must finish.  This job involves cutting the
headliner, and cutting the steel underneath it.  There is a bunch of steel
which shapes the headliner around the hand crank, this must be removed.  I
used a Makita 90ƒ grinder with a cutting wheel, it was a nasty job.  Also
your sunroof must operate well for the motor to handle it, if your sunroof
has slipped teeth and is cockeyed, it won't work well.  Finally, the cover
for the motor looks good from the drivers and passengers position, but does
not close the gap in front of the motor.  Hasn't really bothered me yet, but
it's not perfect.
