Default Reupholstered sunroof!

I couldn't get that panel out to save my life so I came up with an ingenious little trick. I put 3M two sided tape around the perimeter of the panel and tucked the material in all round. I reused my original material which was good, just unglued. It had some minor tears which are not visible now and the front edge was still intact and holding with the original glue. We'll see how long it holds. If it gets me through the holidays It will be worth it.
