How to disconnect headliner from sunroof assembly

Hello,

I recently bought a 996 C2 which has a few things to be sorted:
- Rattles from (rear side of) sun roof
- Wet head liner at right rear indicating blocked drainage
- When sunroof closing it goes a little slow around halfway
- Head liner loose at rear after drive with windows down
- Head liner could do with a proper clean

So, in order to fix this all at same time I wanted to fully remove the headliner. Which went OK all around, but where it joins to the actual sunroof opening in the middle I got stuck.. How do I get it loose there? From the top I don't think I can lift that 'felt-metal' all around without damaging either that part or the headliner itself. From the bottom I don't see any screws to loose any sub-assembly.. I really don't want to remove the whole sunroof assembly if I don't have to (parked outside..)

Any ideas how I get the headliner loose from the sunroof?

Thanks!
Marc
