I discovered that the "cam follower" on my passenger side was SLIGHTLY bent out of shape, but only to the extent that when the roof is in the closed position, the cam follower rattles. Tilt the roof open or slide it open a teency bit, and no rattles, since the cable tightens/pulls the cam follower tight.
Like you, I thought about replacing the cam follower, but I have NO idea how to disconnect it from the cable, and that's DEFINITELY not something I want to mess with. Otherwise, my mechanism is not damaged in any of the ways that yours is.
As for used parts, try Roberti SAAB. They can get ahold of all sorts of obscure parts. For example, the plate with the two screws that secure the cam followers into the track (had to replace mine).
Let us know if you figure out an easy way to detach the cam follower from the cable and re-attach a replacement cam follower!
Thanks for the great writeup and photos.
