Abstract: A method for actuating an electric motor with a motor control signal with an application-specific frequency, which signal is provided by an electronic motor control unit, wherein the electric motor is used in a vehicle roof for activating a component of this roof while being connected to a region of the roof. Embodiments provide that the electric motor can be actuated by the motor control unit with an additional signal whose frequency and amplitude are suitable for causing the region of the vehicle roof to which said electric motor is connected to oscillate in order to generate sound.

Abstract: A deflector member may include a front portion positioned on the front side of the opening and corner portions extending, in a curved manner, rearward from both ends of the front portion, respectively. A lower edge of the deflector member may form a notch between the front portion and the corner portion. The lower edge member can be divided into a front lower edge member attached to a lower edge of the front portion, and an arc-shaped lower edge member attached to a lower edge of the corner portion. The frame structure may be provided with a front attachment body and an arc-shaped attachment body to which the front lower edge member and the arc-shaped lower edge member are detachably attached, respectively.
