I reckon I need to take the roof lining off to tackle my stuck sunroof. Is it possible to remove the sunroof metal clips without opening the sunroof?

I don't see any reason why not - when I did mine (the how to guide), I was sitting in the car when I did this part. The sunroof was only open becuase it was 26 degrees outside !

You'll need to open the roof to get the sunroof pannel off, but you can see all the mechanism with it still in place.

Good luck !

Yes, get a flat screwdriver in between the headlining edge and the trim and work round till you're just at the point where the clip is and twist. They come undone with a bit of a crack! You have to make sure you're levering the clip not the headlining! When you've got the headlining out just unbolt the whole sunroof cartridge and drop it down into the car, good to have a helper but I have done it on my own a couple of times.
