Default Sunroof wont open

on my volvo s40 (2003), my sunroof looks like someone stepped on it from the outside, leaning in on side, now the sunroof wont open all the way. its makes a grinding sound and seems like the support of the right side isnt as good as the left.

when i try to open the sunroof, it begins to slide but slide crooked, pulling the right side but not the left, then stops after opening only about 1/8"

help !!!!

It seems common for these roofs to start sagging. When mine did, I was able to loosen the hex-key bolts that you can see from the inside, push the glass panel up into place and re-tighten the bolts.
