How to remove narrow sunroof panel?
I'm replacing the headliner in my 01 XJ8L and have everything out and recovered except the narrow panel that slides when the roof pivots from the front. I'm de-smoking a Kentucky Burley Special, so leaving any fabric on the ceiling is out of the question. The big panel came right out, but the narrow panel has me scratching my head. Take out the bolts and drop the whole assembly? The manual doesn't address this minor piece at all.

NO.
The larger front interior panel is remove from the top (OUTSIDE) with the sliding roof panel in TILT position. Slide the interior panel UP & OUT THE BACK OF THE TILTED PANEL.
Then remove the metal sliding roof panel, THEN remove the short rear panel from the plastic guides.
ALL OUT THE TOP.
Nothing gets dropped down inside the car interior and the headliner can stay in place.
