Step 3: Center New Fabric on
Windshield Header with Tape 

Slide the sewn in extrusion along the
front edge of the top into the channel of
the lower header that is secured to the
windshield in step one (See Fig 11).

Locate and line up the center notch in
the middle of the fabric to the center of
the channel centering the fabric on the
lower header. Secure the fabric around
the center notch with masking tape.
See Fig 12.

Step 2: Install the New Top Fabric
to the Windshield Header 

With the old top completely removed
and the top header plate unscrewed
from the lower header, raise the bow
assembly and lock the header to the
windshield (See Fig 9).

As seen in Fig 10, drape the soft top
fabric backing side up over the hood
and the windshield and locate the front
extrusion sewn into the front header of
the Top. Locate the masking tape and
have it ready for step 3.
