Sunroof problem

So my sunroof stopped working today. Wants to open but can`t. I found that on the drivers side the rear of the window isn`t dropping down so that it can retract into the roof. There is a small wedge that is supposed to retract when you push the button. It pulls back and allows the window to drop. I can push it back manually and the window will work. I believe it has become disconnected but can`t see it because the glass is in the way. What do I have to do to remove the glass panel? Is it just a matter of removing the four screws?

I lube all the moving parts with marine grade white lithium grease, then claybar and wax the inner rim of the sunroof opening on the body and dress the sunroof's weatherstripping (after wiping it down with soap and water to clean it) with graphite suspended in oil (used for locks usually). I've fixed several stuck sunroofs by just clay barring and waxing the opening, but for the stubborn ones the graphite on the seal has done it.
