If there are only 2 wires on the unit, and one is red and the other is black, you would be pretty safe to assume that red is positive and black is ground. If the switches are not mounted to the sunroof you may need to use 2 relays for a reversal rest at ground setup. When you get the roof in, let us know what you figure out. I now know that I am not a master installer, which is a good thing. But I do think that I can help you with relay setup if it comes to that.
