I only have english not metric allen wrenches. Looks like 3/16 is the closest? Is this correct? Please double check my math and conversion

The sunroof allen wrench is right on the cover that you have to pop open to move the sunroof manually. If you don't have it there, your car's missing it.
Here's a link to the actual part
Couldn't find the specs and see what size it is though...
Here's a good link to see the whole break down: Sunroof

mines in the tool kit in the boot
OP, take a look in your tool kit and see if the wrench is in there.
If not, just take a flathead screwdriver and carefully pop open the panel that houses the button for sunroof operation - see if the allen wrench is on the inside of that panel.
