Hello Pat:

I've had a  tube that was broken, right at the sunroof end, leaking  
water into the headliner.

As you have found, replacement looked daunting.  In my case, I managed  
to fish the tube, then used the sting to pull through a smaller tube  
inside the original tube.  Had to 'seal' the smaller tube at the top  
opening of the original tube with some silicon glue so that water  
would be forced in the the smaller tube..
