Step 4: Secure Top in Lower Header
Working from the center out, secure the
top in the lower header channel with
masking tape holding it in place for
installing the top plate to the lower
header. Use 5-6 pieces of tape to hold
the top in place. Note: The tape pieces
will be completely covered when the top
plate is put back on the lower header.
See Figs 13, 14 & 15.

Step 5: Reassemble Lower Header
Close the upper header over the taped
down fabric sandwiching the fabric but
leaving the underside faced up on the
hood (See Fig 16). Using the screws you
removed in step one, reinstall the four
corner screws and then the 19 or 27
(depending on model year) screws along
the top of the header. See Figs 17 & 18.
Un-latch the bow assembly from the
windshield (inside vehicle) and lower
the bow assembly to the rear of the
vehicle folding the top back over with
the underside of the fabric facing down
(see Fig 19).
