^So you can pull the e-brake up one click and the top will go up while you are moving?

Then why all the hype about making a coputer change when 1 click doesn't cause the brakes to catch? Just pull it up one click while you are driving then hit the button.

Because even if you have 1 click up, it still looks at the speed sensor to make sure you are stopped (0 mph).

I had this happen in traffic... I ended up moving with the top half down and it wouldn't work until I stopped the car again.

I want to do this mod too, but I leased my car. You think they'll know when I give it back in 3 years?

What does it matter? Just reattach the wire to itself and it is unmodified.

you have to click it up much more that 1 click to operate the roof in 'stock' configuration.
