    Another easy way to clean out the drains is with pressurized air from a
shop-style compressor... hopefully, your friendly local repair shop will let
you use their air hose for a few minutes.

    All you have to do is shoot some air down the drains, one at each front
corner of the sunroof.  No potential damage, no tool to get stuck in there.
