Default Sunroof question...

Anyone know how the sunroof drains? Are they accessible under the headliner?? Mine seems to be clogged on both sides and I've tried running a small wire (.54 E string) through to clear them but I keep hitting a sharp turn or something about 3 inches in on both sides. Don't think it's the obstruction because it feels & sounds metallic through the wire and is the same distance in on both sides.... Just wondering if I'd gain access after removing the headliner?? Hated to pull it and still not be able to get to it....

You can get to it under the headliner. But try blowing compressed air through the holes first if possible

Thanks! I'll try flushing it out with some compressed air and pull the headliner if that fails...
