Unhappy Driver side airbag leak near window...HELP!

Hello guys, I have a 2008 TL base model.

Over past few months, I've noticed water in the area of the photo(1st photo) driver's side.

I bought a snake/line cleaner from Amazon and cleaned out the hole (in sunroof). Water is draining out to the bottom(2nd photo)
of the car. I also did a test of taping (3rd photo) all around the sunroof and going thru a carwash/spraying with hose. The leak still accumulates and occurs.

What else could this be? Thanks for any advice.............

Use a flat head to pry off the small square and it should expose a bolt that you can remove

Or once it’s pried up , it rotates, i forget which one. Should be obvious once you pry it though

Thanks! I am guessing I need to disconnect the battery? So airbag won't go off
