Locate the two plastic strips sewn to the sides of the
top above each door (FIG57).
Starting with the front strips, slip the strips into the
channel in the door surround above the door opening
(FIGs 58 & 59).
Secure the strips on each side of the vehicle.
When complete each side should look like FIG60.

Step 11: Ensure your Front Header is properly
adjusted on the windshield
The MasterTop Fastback Top has been engineered to
the original factory windshield measurements but in
rare cases, this measurement may vary slightly from
vehicle to vehicle due to prolonged use of the vehicle,
worn seals or other factors.
To make sure your windshield header is sealed
properly on the windshield, please see FIGs 65 &66
which show the proper location of the front header
on the windshield when the front header is clamped
down and the over door bows are attached to the bow
brackets.
If your windshield header seals as shown in these
pictures you are all ready to go and no further
adjustments are necessary. If the header “overhangs”
the windshield or exposes the inside windshield seal,
the header on your vehicle is not sealed correctly and
you will get air and potentially water leaks.
