280 SEL SUNROOF

My sunroof won't close.
1972 year.

Where can I buy a new motor for the Sunroof & accesories for it AND is there a way to MANUALLY close the sunroof? I think the w126's had a way to open/close it manually but never done it before so I dont know if it can be done nor if I need a special tool.

thx!

There should...

be a gear set that allows for hand cranking the sunroof, which IIRC is in the trunk.

A special "crank" tool was provided as a part of the owner's documentation packet; however, if you are posting here, I suspect the owner's packet is gone...

The motor should be still available, or you can have yours rebuilt, if it is not in too bad a condition.
