Default Hardtop hardware install

Anyone have any tips on installing the bolts for the screw caps. I`ve read there a pain to install.

I removed the two pieces of carpet trim. It gives you a bit more room.

buy yourself a long reach Torx bit. (socket drive extension is to fat to fit)

You'll need to reach through some of the tops hardware to access some of the fasteners.

Good luck. It's kind of a bitch !!!
