A pivotal-sliding roof panel apparatus for a vehicle having an opening in the roof. The apparatus includes a housing securable to the roof structure of the vehicle. A movable roof panel is slidably mounted within the housing and is selectively movable between closed, fully-opened and partially opened, venting positions. A drive motor and a pair of drive belts are connected to the movable roof panel for selectively moving the movable roof panel between various positions. Guide rails are mounted on the housing for directing the sliding movement of the movable roof panel. First and second lifters are mounted on opposed sides of the roof panel and are operative for raising and lowering the roof panel. The first and second lifters each include a guide member slidably mounted within the guide rail, a slider member movably disposed within the guide member and first and second pivotally connected links which are connected between the slider member, the guide member and the movable roof panel and are movable between collapsed and extended positions to raise and lower the roof panel. A stop member is provided to limit forward movement of the first link to cause an extension of the first and second links from the collapsed and the extended or partially extended positions.
