                         5.   Release the top from the windshield by pulling  
                               down on the header bow release levers.   
                                
                          
Once the top is unlatched from the windshield, you can drop the top into the well behind the 
seat.   If the buggy links should straighten out during this process, the top cannot be folded 
all the way down.  It may be necessary to unlock them once again by pulling either one (or 
both) forward, allowing the top to collapse behind the seat.   
 
Close the tonneau cover firmly to catch the second latch. 

 

To open the top, the sequence is as follows: 
 

1.  Release the tonneau lever in the B-pillar and open the tonneau. 
2.  Pull the top completely out of the well and align the front locating pins with the 

holes in the top of the windshield.  

3.  Fold the rear part of the top forward and close the tonneau. 
4.  Drop the rear of the top back, allowing it to seat on the rear deck, and push 

the buggy links toward the rear to lock them and seat the top. 

5.  Flip the front latches into the locked position. 
 

CAUTION: When locking the buggy links, push only against the tab that is 
provided on these links;

 

NEVER put fingers into the area of the hinge joint 

or pinching can result

). 

 
6.  Flip the windshield latches “up” to lock the top to the windshield.
