Last time I helped my friend fix the leaking sunroof on his Bora, I removed the drain pipe myself. The key was dealing with the A-pillar section. During disassembly, first unscrew the bolt on the roof handle, then carefully pry open the upper clips of the A-pillar trim panel with a plastic pry tool - be careful not to break the clips with too much force. Inside you'll see a gray soft pipe connector; on older models it's a push-in type that releases when you press the clip. After removal, I found the front end of the drain pipe completely clogged with mud. After clearing it with an air gun, reassembly was straightforward - you'll hear a click when it's properly seated. Finally, remember to pour some water into the sunroof trough to test drainage speed. The whole process took about half an hour, with most effort going into avoiding scratches on the trim panels.
