I believe the sunshade of the Roewe RX5's sunroof can be replaced by yourself, but it requires some DIY skills. I've personally taken it apart before, and it felt like a DIY project. First, prepare tools like screwdrivers and trim removal tools, then locate the area around the sunroof control module and carefully disassemble it. The whole process takes about one to two hours, with the key being to avoid breaking plastic clips or scratching the interior, as repairs could become more troublesome. If unsure, you can find the owner's manual or forum tutorials online—following the steps one by one usually works fine. Replacing a new sunshade isn't too difficult and can save you a few hundred bucks in labor costs. The key is to test the smooth sliding of the sunshade before reassembling it to ensure no unusual noises, so you can drive with peace of mind. Before starting, it's best to turn off the power to avoid triggering sunroof fault codes.
