Do you mean you have the entire sunroof and track assembly out, and you want to remove the panel? I'm not sure I understand your question exactly, because it sounds like you've done everything but the easy part, and that's normally the part you do first.
If so, you need to crank the sunroof back about a third of the way open. Take off the welting from around the sunroof panel, pull down on the front of the headliner upholstery attached to the panel, and then pull it forward. The upholstery panel should slide right out.
Once you've done that, there are 6 10mm (wrench size) nuts holding the sunroof to the track assembly.
