You pull straight out towards the seat. It takes a lot of force. Don't be surprised if you end up breaking at least one of the six tabs. The first few times I pulled it out of there I didn't break anything, but the third or fourth time I did break one of them.

 

Sorry, but I didn't ask for your opinion. There is no F-ing anything up, if you know what you're doing. Do a search for the mod and post there if you want to post your opinion on the actual mod.

I'm asking about removing a panel.

If you don't GET IT, then just move along.

 

Even if you do horribly crack that piece, one, who cares, you can't really see it, and two, its cheap to replace.

Also, its a great feature to have - you can operate the top at a crawl in traffic, without having to stop entirely.

 

Does your panel have the storage compartments? If so then all you have to do is remove the screw in the middle and two push type rivets at the corners.

 

Yes. Mine has the little storage compartments.

 

It's this wire.




I see you moved.. (and got rid of the Lexus )
Hope all is well.. Weather must be a lot nicer than it was in Illinois

 

I sure did.

Weather is much nicer than Chicago. But it's been raining a lot lately. No snow and sub zero windchills though.

Thanks for the pic. I was pretty sure that was the wire, from what I could remember. Now if I can just get the darn cover off.... I'll have to look for this screw.

 

Bingo. There are countless times when I am in traffic on the freeway onramp, waiting for the metering lights to let us on and I feel like dropping the top. Since you end up at a steady 3-5 mph while crawling towards the metering light, there really isn't an opportunity to pull the e-brake and sit in one place for 8 seconds (without getting honked at, or cut in front of).

Those of you that live in big cities will understand.

tcho, the weather here in Chicago hasn't been actually too bad this past weekend. We hit 65 degrees and 60 the following day. Unfortunately, it was raining most of the time. But not too bad, had my top down for the little time it wasnt raining. Good luck with getting the panel removed. It is a very helpful mod when your in slow moving traffic. Some of these people just don't understand the usefulness this mod can be.

And as for this comment Itswb made, must've never did a mod in his life or at least against it. . You should proofread what you write so it doesn't come back to you.

 

I heard. Too bad that isn't the norm! although I heard there were a few tornados up in wisconsin because it was so warm.
