hard top removal

First release 2 front latches, 2 side latches, thenrelease side laches behind drivers side (2) upward) have someone go into car and (use head) to lift rear as much as you can, a wood shim under lid will help) \ Use small screwdrive to push latch to passenger side to release hold down hook (latch). When roof off, chek cable to latch (small lever) work it back and forth and see if it effects latch release. You can adjust cabe (tricky) with slide hold down to take up slack so that small lever unlkatches hook. Hope this helps, let me know. good luck Abe G
