I currently have the headliner out of my car so that I can recover it, and I don't see how the rear roof drain tubes could be causing much rattling. Are you sure it's not something else? At the back of the metal sunroof pan, there is a nipple on either side that a rubber tube fits on. The tube runs back into the C pillar, over the wheel well and drains behind the mudflap, as Bill mentions. I guess the rubber tube could be vibrating, but it would be kind of a dull thud.
Other possibilities for the rattle source: the sunshade, the roof glass, and the copper tubes that the sunroof cables travel in.
If you are convinced that it is the rear drain tubes (or the front drain tubes, for that matter), then you will have to drop the headliner to get to it. (Taking out the headliner not as difficult as it sounds, provide you don't have a CD model.)
