Hello, I bought my daughter a 2012 Altima 2.5 SL and I have a question about the sunroof. When we opened it for the first time the popup deflector seems to have a broken guide/retaining strip on the passenger side and prevents the roof from closing unless you hold it down. When I look at it appears to be a small plastic piece that holds it in place on that side has broken at the flex point. Is there any guide for replacing this deflector and its guide? Unfortunately i didn't take any pictures before she left.

Welcome to NICO! Sorry to hear that your car is having trouble. I'm not all too well versed in your vehicle, but can offer an option for you.

Here at NICO, we have Factory Service Manuals available free to members. Details about the sunroof can be found in the Roof - RF Section
