Sorry for the confusion. By ceiling panel, as explained above, I meant the cover over the AC on the ceiling of the RV and where the filter is located. It may require removing several screws which are now covered by a removable plastic or rubber plug cover. Just take a small screwdriver and work it under the edge of the cover and it will pop off.
The whole ceiling panel is made of plastic so it is light and should come right down after removing those screws. Then you need to use a flashlight and look up inside the opening of the AC if those four corner bolts are not immediately visible. Some AC's have them right under the cover and others have them up inside the AC, but all have them easily available to snug up.
That is how the AC is held on to the roof. The whole thing is a sandwich with the upper unit on the outside and the lower unit inside with the roof and gasket in between. Then the inside opening is covered up with the ceiling panel.:)

Barney, looking at pictures of my interior, the panel is not where the drip is occurring. There is a "fan" where the drip is occurring though. But the drip are does line up with where the a/c unit is on the roof, and it's the same drip i've noticed when i ran the a/c for too long in high heat. This leads me to believe it's still related to the long bolts needing to be tightened, but curious to hear your thoughts.
