I also drive an E-30 325iC. I believe that the tool you and I are missing is a small socket type tool to manually open the sunroof (missing on our convertibles :-) in case the battery is dead. I think there's a small plastic plug near the front on the ceiling that can be removed. The socket fits in there.

But, I could be wrong :-).

         Hope this helps (Hey, hope I'm right!),
                   Larry.
