Slide the roof open a couple of inches and pull down the front edge of the fabric lining. It's held up to the metal hatch frame by about six press in metal clips. Care required as yo can bend the lining permanently if not carefull.
When these are all undone, slide the lining right back into the roof, tilt the hatch, and unscrew the other four "star" bolts.
