Default How do you remove the inside panel of the sunroof?

I'm trying to switch out the old plastic latches with some metal ones and I'm trying to figure out how to get those plastic circular plugs out without breaking them. I'm sure I'm going to have some casualties, anybody have any ideas on where I can buy replacement ones?

remove all the screws from top of the liner, with a small hammer and a allen wrench about the same diameter as the center pin of the fasteners, push the center pins out then, pull the allen wrench out, if you use the proper size wrench when you pull it out that fastener should come out.

I used to sell the kit to repair the sunroof liner.

Lart,
Thanks for the info. Never noticed that the center portion of the plug could be pulled out. Mine are really brittle(probably because the PO left it out in the sun), and I have a couple broken already. Anybody know of some kind of replacement plug that will fit?
