I wonder if there is a sensor that inhibits operating the pano roof when the roof rack mount points are occupied?
Why? The rack should be mounted high enough to permit the roof to open and operate normally. The mounts are sufficiently distant from the roof in the horizontal direction; the rack should provide any needed vertical clearance. The roof mounts are very low-tech... they are simple doors covering simple metal threaded holes. I predict the answer is "no sensors."

Starting out:
Flips open:
The base which you can simply screw with your hand or using the plastic built-in flipper
I bought this from MB but I think Thule is the actual manufacturer. I would suspect the TM version will be just about the same.
Those latches look identical to those found on the pano roof Model S.
