Replacement Top Hardware Installation Instructions
Windshield Channel Installation
1. Position Windshield Channel onto vehicle as shown in Figure 1.
2. Once in position, secure Windshield Channel using the included (11) - #8 x ¼” Sheet Metal Screws (Figure 1).
NOTE: In some cases the holes on the Windshield Channel will line up with existing holes. In this case,
ensure holes are not too large to install the new screws included in the package. If holes are to big, you must
replace the included screws with larger screws, found at any local hardware store.
If you are replacing a hardtop, use the Windshield Channel as a template to drill 1/8” holes.
