Abstract
The present invention relates to a cover for a sliding roof system having at least two guide elements, which are movably arranged on two opposite sides of the cover such that the distance between them is variable. The two guide elements are each attached in a sliding guide, which predefines a displacement direction for the guide elements that differs from the displacement direction of the cover, such that the cover is centered with regard to the two guide elements. The invention also relates to a sliding roof system having two guide tracks, which extend along a roof of a motor vehicle at a changing distance, and a cover.
