Dirt UNDER the moon-roof
 
Doh!
The other day I was washing my P5, when I noticed that I left the Moon-roof tilted up. I had the sliding part on the inside shut, but the glass part tilted up. Idiot.
Any ideas on how to get the dirt outta there?

Damn! I hate having a dirt ally behind my house!

ahhhh since you can't shut the blind with the moonroof open....about the only way you are going to be able to get at it well enough to clean it properly is to remove your entire headliner.....big job...but I don't know how else you could do it.

Maybe an anorexic Ethiopian guy with a paint brush...

Maybe with the roof tilted up and the shade closed (same way the dirt got in there), you could snake a shop-vac hose through the tilted roof.

I have one of those "shark" vacs ("as seen on tv" hehe), and the hose is far thinner than a shop vac - maybe someone you know has one, or something similar.

Or - any vacuum that has a hose attachment, then just duct-tape a thinner hose to the end to snake inside there.

Only way I can think of, short of Nuke's suggestion of complete headliner removal.
