Crazy question.....

Hello, friends.

''I'm readying my sl600 for winter storage. I would like to clean the inside of the hardtop's rear window but can't quite figure out how to tackle this. Can't really squeeze myself into the space behind the front seats.....

What approach do you all take? Thank you!

I think someone suggested to use the easy pack function.

Thanks for your help! I'm familiar with this maneuver, but it doesn't seem to open space to clean the inside of the rear window....surely I'm missing simething

Apologies if I am missing something, but why was it that you cannot just move seat forward and reach in?
Perhaps you could raise roof half way then clean from the side? (be careful though and leave engine running)
