W211 '08 Headliner Removal

Hi Guys,

I need help to remove the Headliner in my E350 2008 to gain access to the panoramic roof's motor and cable. I faced a problem at the panoramic roof's beginning. I headliner seems to be stuck and i can't take it off from their. Is there a screw that i'mm missing? or is there a special procedure to take it off?

Hi Basil,
I'm facing a similar problem trying to remove my Stationwagon's headliner to reupholster it. I've removed all the lights, visors, sunroof front clip seal, and all pillar covers. But now stuck at the centre the whole piece seems glued on to the roof.

Some manuals say the 2008 has a couple of magnets around there, but mine is not moving and I swear its glued on.
Did you manage to remove yours?
Mine is an earlier model that according to WIS, should not have any clips or magnets, and according to it should just drop once the centre passenger roof light is removed (the last piece to do).
