Replace sunroof headliner on 88 740 GLE 700 1988

I have read the 700/900 FAQ and it references a Volvo TSB on this topic. I went to Alldata but could not locate a TSB. Anyone have the specific number, the procedure described, or any other suggestions on how this is done? I can release the 2 clips when the roof is in the 'vent' position but what happens next? The roof headliner itself is in great shape, it's just the sunroof headliner that is in bad shape. TIA.

    I believe that the Haynes Manual has a good explanation of how to disassemble the sunroof. I just replaced my headliner and the headliner on the sunroof a couple of months ago. As I remember, after releasing the spring loaded clips in the back, you then close the sunroof and slide the headliner portion back with your hands. There are two metal clips in the front of the headliner that attach it to the sunroof. The headliner will release from these two clips when you push it back. It releases fairly easily. See the Haynes Manual for detials.
