I was in a touchless car wash last night. I normally don't go to the automatic washers, but I was busy.

Midway through, the front sunroof seal was... shall we say... "breached". Water POURED in through the front left (of course, directly onto my lap), and the crank handle leaked also. All I had was an old newspaper in the back, so I held it up to the seam futilely while the water soaked me on a few more passes and my girlfriend laughed hysterically. The washer eventually stopped, and I pulled out the crank and gave it some WD while said girlfriend went over the interior with a football-sized wad of paper towels.

Here's my question: how miserable is fixing the sunroof seal? I looks like one of those jobs where your hands are over your head for the whole time, but I've never had a car with a sunroof, and so I'm curious. It does not leak in the rain (we get a lot of rain in Vancouver, too); this is the only time I've had this kind of problem.

Any advice is welcome.
