Pull the headliner down and there will be 4 tubes at the corners. First, make sure they are still plugged up to the drains. Then take a close hanger or something you can snake down in the tubes. That will clean them out. Just be sure not to gouge the tubes.

What do you mean by solid lid? A sunroof is a chunk of the roof of the car that can be removed? I love my moonroof, first vehicle that I've owned with one and I think it's the coolest thing! lol.

mine leaked when I got it, I just tightened the bolts that hold the hinges to the body.
I had to pull down the headliner and use pliers to tighten them,
I couldnt find out how to tighten it from the top.
