Question Need help installing moon roof bolts

Hello, the other day when I was driving down I85, when one of my four moon roof bolts loosened and went flying off never to be seen again. I went to pull a part to pick up a spare, but was stumped at how to take them out. If anyone knows the secret to these buggers let me know!
Thanks Collin

The sunroof pan has access holes in it at each of the 4 screw locations.
screws are Torx T20.

You can get a torx bit and a rachet in between the headliner and sunroof pan but it
is easier is to drop the headliner in the front or rear, so you don't ruin the headliner

front: remove map tray, A pillar trim, sunroof trim, pull front portion of headliner down
remove screw through access hole.

rear: remove rear trim, rear sunroof switch,screw under switch, rear dome lamp, drop headliner

Pick a part..cut the headliner out of the way and remove the screws make sure you get the button on the top of the glass too. They strip easily

Cheers
