Default How to install new sunroof in 91 Civic Si?

My old sunroof is all rusted around the glass and the seals leak so it's causing rust inside my A pillars etc. I got a new sunroof glass. Any tips on installing it. I'd like to make this as painless as possible but I have a bad feeling...

ive never done it but you probably gota drop the headliner and the whole sunroof assembly to get the glass out.

Actually, I found you don't have too. There are bolts hiding under some rails under the glass. You can just unscrew and pop the glass out. 15 minute job.
