and a GENERAL VIDEO on how to remove a Headliner.

You will need to remove the entire headliner, being careful not to crack the foam it is constructed. You will need to remove all the plastic door pillar covers, any clothes hangers, the dome light, etc.
You can purchase headliner fabric and adhesive at most fabric stores. The personnel there will assist you in getting the correct adhesive. You must remove all the old headliner fabric and backing pad material to get to the foam core for installation of the new headliner fabric. Lay out the fabric and cut it to size, allowing for some overlap in case you err slightly when positioning it. You will apply the adhesive to the foam core and to the back of the headliner fabric. It is a contact-type cement. Carefully position the fabric over the foam core and work from the center out to position it, being careful not to trap wrinkles or to stretch the fabric excessively. Trim off the excess and reinstall headliner.

Sorry, no. Pull down on the headliner at the front of the window and you can see the motor. Cable is most likely broke or motor bad. Remove all the columns front, middle, and back. Remove the headliner. Then you can access the motor and regulator for the sunroof. The columns and headliner just pop off.

if you haven't figured it out yet ,you pull off the rear headliner center plastic piece,it just pulls down ,then remove the 2 puch pins on rear of headliner, then pull out light fixture and replace bulb

you have to first remove all the Plastic trim pieces around the head liner that hold it in place including grab handles or clothes hangers then it will come down easily, i recommend having an extra set of hands when you take it down so as not to damage it, then simply slide it out through the rear hatch. it is actually very easy to do.

rip it out just grab it and start pulling and yank it out....or if you want to be prettier and not take a chance on messing things up pull all the trim first then it will come out. I like the first way better tho

1. Remove sun visors and visor hooks
2. Remove overhead assist handle.
3. Remove coat hook.
4. Remove overhead console, if equipped..
5. Remove A-pillar moldings.
6. Remove quarter trim panels.
7. Remove dome lamp.
8. Separate headliner from roof panel.
9. Extract headliner through door opening

get a coat hanger
slide the hook near the the key lock up and down
put your finger in the key hole
and with the coat hanger play around near the key hole ,you will feel the key hole moving well up and down ok untill you hook it pull on it

you either have motor or track damaged, you can manually close it with an ALLEN wrench as outlined in your owners manual, unless the track is jambed.....that is a major job to replace the track/motor assembly, because the entire headliner has to be removed,plus ALL the trim.....GL.....
