How do you remove the sunroof on 325i touring the car has a electric roof as I have just bought a headlining?

First thing is to put the roof so it is half open then prise down carefully with a screw driver the front of the sunroof lining. The back of the lining should then unhook from the back of the roof and you should be able to leave it half in the roof. You then put the roof up at the back and you will be able to see 4 torx head bolts, undo these and the roof pops out.
Try this he explains it much better than me

Widge - you've lost a couple of torx head bolts out of your sunroof. There should be six.
