Headliner questions! Please help! 700

I have an 87 740 GLE (N/A) that I am getting ready to sell.

This car has been one of the most dependable autos I have ever owned, for the last few years we have used it as a spare car for our guests to drive. Some times it sits for 3-5 months at a time and all I do is hook the battery back up and off it goes!
However, it's time to let it go to someone else. I realize I could sell it like it is (was), but it has taken such good care of my family and friends, I think It deserves a little extra attention (labor hours/money) so that the new owner might be more inclined to appreciate it as we have.

So far I have cleaned and polished the exterior, stripped the interior and readied the carpet (so far so good).

I have the headliner out and the board recovered with new foam/fabric (this turned out nice).

The question I have is!

How do I get to the sunroof, to replace the fabric?

P.S. I am also going to try my hand at re-dieing the leather seats and faded plastic. I really hope it turns out as nice as I think it will. I have already planned on taking some dig. pic when done and will make them avalible to you guys!

Big thanks in advace!
