Sunroof drain question and Introduction

[Vanguard]

Good afternoon,

I recently picked up a 2001 e53 for my son's first car. It's in great shape, but came with a sunroof drain issue. After doing a lot of research here and on Youtube, I pulled the a-pillars and found the front drivers side hose come out of the body conduit - presumably during a windsheild replacement. I fixed that and checked both A pillars for kinked hoses and all seemed well - a quart of water poured into the hoses drained underneath the vehicle with no leaks inside the car.

Fast forward to a couple of weeks later, it appears that the passenger side hose may be disconnected at the sunroof - inside of the pass trim cover was wet and now had water in the glove box and on the passenger floor.

I'm planning on pulling down the headliner - reattaching the hose with a band clamp. Looking for tips on removing the sun visor and suggestions on the clamp/size - I assume these would be heater hose clamps.

Thanks,

Joel

Visor has a cap covering the three t20 screws. There is a quick disconnect for the lamp. Use a trim tool to pull down the cap
