Default Help- '06 Headliner removal for sunroof fix

I really hope someone will reply to this. My Sunroof in my Lexus is off track so it won't open, thankfully it's closed but it's about to start raining so I need to fix it because it will leak being off track. I have been told that in order to fix this I have to remove the headliner. It needs to be done even if I didn't fix the sunroof because I want to get it redone anyways. But I have no idea how to remove it can somebody give me some pointers, I would much appreciate it!

You need to post this in the ES300 forum. There might be slight differences in how to remove the headliners for each car. You basically have to remove the plastic trim pieces above the doors as well as the sun visors, lights and handles that are above the doors.
