How do I hotwire my 740? (Or at least get power to the accessories)-I lost the key... 700 1988

Hey everbody,

Yep, in the midst of swapping a new interior into my 740 Turbo project car I managed to lose the only key I have...anyway for now I just need to get power to the accessories (Gotta close the sunroof) so can this be done without hacking the wiring harness to bits?

Thanks,

Matthew

Take the sunroof motor cover off and using a flat screw driver you can close it manually.

Run a jumper wire from the battery to the sunroof fuse terminal. This should power it up to close.
