this is out of my 93 manual hope it helps

If the sliding roof does not operate:
(e) Remove the control switch cover.
(f) Remove the large screw inside.
NOTICE: Be careful not to lose the spring washer or
shim.
(g) Manually operate the moon roof by inserting a special
crank–shaped screwdriver into the hole and turning the drive
shaft.

I think you can order a manual online for free at Lexus dot com..under owners. You have to create an owners account though. I don't know if they are still offering them. Someone should scan their owner's manuals and post them on the net as PDF's (although i don't know the legality of it) But w/e...
