I have an '82 300SD ( W126). I am stripping all the paint for a complete repaint. I need to remove and replace the sliding roof weatherstrips. I have the FSM, but its of little help--it says to open the roof 3/4 of the way and unclip the headliner at the front--4 clips. I can't see any clips. What am I looking for? I don't want to break anything, but I need to get the headliner out. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

On a 89 420SEL, the roof should be open about 1/3, then use a paint stirring stick, to separate the liner from the roof. The clips are difficult to see, if you have never done it before. Just push the stick in and twist it, or pry with it. The clips are at even intervals, so once you get the first one, you should be able to guess at the remainder.
