WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 GMC Sierra and 2007 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Lower the headliner. Refer to Headlining Trim Panel Replacement (Regular Cab) or Headlining Trim Panel Replacement (Extended Cab) or Headlining Trim Panel Replacement (Crew Cab) .
- Disconnect the electrical connector (1) from the motor/actuator.
- Remove the screws (2) from the sunroof motor/actuator.
- Pull straight down to disengage the drive gear from the cables housed within the sunroof cable drive tubes.
- Remove the sunroof motor/actuator (3) from the sunroof module.
IMPORTANT:
The sunroof motor/actuator drive shaft turns in both directions and contains no limit switches. You may replace the sunroof motor/actuator with the window panel in any position.

It is only necessary to lower the headlinder. Only do those steps in headlinder replacement that will lower the headlinder enough to grain access.
