Default Anyone tried to put the sunroof molding back on?

just got my car painted and took the molding off for the sunroof to get painted and i wanted to know if anyone has tried to put it back on, i think if i take it out i see bolts holding this metal edging around it and if i take it off it might be easier to put back on.

Yes. On a CRX, open the sunroof all the way. You'll see the two 10mm bolts right there on the tracks in front of it, then two 8mm bolts underneath the rear part of the sunroof panel that hold the "stops" in place. Remove those.

Then the sunroof will be free to slide forward off its track. You'll see where to take off the other 10mm bolts on the bottom of the panel once its in your hands.

When putting the sunroof back on, be EXTRA CAREFUL not to strip the two 10mm bolts that go in the track. They strip easy... dont ask how I know.
