I've searched, but have not found a guide on how to remove the sliding sunshade for the sunroof. My fabric has detached and I'd like to remove it and have it redone. My headliner is perfectly fine, so I don't really want to remove that if I don't have to.

Anyone just remove the sunshade that can chime in?

It’s been a while, but I believe you open the sunroof halfway, then pry down on the front, releasing the clips. Open 100%, then slide the shade out. I’m sure it’s in the Bentley, to adjust the sunroof height.

The handle portion will probably be very brittle... proceed with caution.
