A latch for supporting in a releasable manner the forward edge of the removable sunroof panel is disclosed. A frame extending around an opening in a vehicle roof has a resilient molding adapted to support the perimeter of a curve latch panel to close off the opening. The forward edge support comprises a pair of releasing bayonets attached in spaced relationships to the underside of the forward edge of the panel. A two part releasable fastener for the rear edge of the panel is movable from a first position locking the panel in a closed position to a vented position.
