Sunroof Switch Bezel WTFBBQ?!?

I know the aftermarket usually finds solutions for problems the OEM ignores, so I'm just going to throw this out there.

I am sick of trying to keep my stock sunroof switch bexel in place. The switch i only
marginally more secure. It looks like hell just to leave it out, but that is what I am resorting to at the moment. (the bezel, not the switch)

Has there been any improvements to the design from the aftermarket?

If you still have warrenty take your car in and get it fixed. Mine is doing the same thing but I think that mine broke because I push the button to hard and then it puts stress on the bezel leading it to break.

I took mine to the dealer multiple multiple times and had the thing replaced probably 4 or 5 times. Finally got out the 5 minute epoxy and just sealed it in place. Not coming down anymore.

Yeah, I did that the last two times.

I think I might just design my own replacement bezel.

How much would it be worth to everyone if I could get it to work right?

I thought about epoxying it in a fit of rage, but knew that if I did, the sunroof switch would fail this summer.

I'll have to look at the service bulletin

I Took My To The Dealer And They Replaced The Whole Switch . Their Was A Flaw In The Design . If You Noticed When You Push The Switch The Whole Switch Pushes Up.with The Fix Their Is No Room At All For The Switch To Move Its Solid Now. They Redesigned The Switch Box . Your Bezel Will Not Fall Off.
