A mount for a roof-mounted autonomous vehicle sensor assembly (22, Fig.1) includes a cap 36 compatible in shape with a moonroof opening (32, Fig.2), a seal (58, Fig.8), and a plurality of support members for connecting to roof rails (54), and wherein the cap has a plurality of attachment features 38 to connect to the sensor assembly. The cap could be a rigid polymer. Preferably, a cable aperture 82 is present, with a removable sealing plug 80 included. The support members may incorporate support bows 42 extending across the cap, which could be discrete elements, and formed of metal. It is preferred that the support members also include first and second brackets (44, 46, Fig.6) for connecting to the roof rails. A method is also included for providing the cap and associated features, placing the cap on the roof panel of a vehicle, and subsequently sealing the cap to the vehicle.
