2002 RT10 soft top removal from the frame assembly

[RTScott]

Am looking for anyone who has done this already. Based upon VCA recommendations, recently purchased an "EZ On" fabric top replacement. Original had wear-through due to improper storage in trunk (previous owner). Have the CD service manual for the '02, however nowhere does it refence removal of the fabric from the tops' frame, or installation of new fabric. I've noted the adhesive, but it appears as if the fabric is also secured tightly under the front and rear frame of the soft top. Appears that both front and rear frame areas would need to br removed in the process. There are four visible allen-heads on the rear frame, but no mounting points/fasteners visible on the front frame. Any assistance, and insight, particularly, what to avoid doing, would be appreciated. Thanks.

I think most(if not all) would be better taken to your local interior shop. I would suspect it would be very difficult for the average joe to do the top in his/her garage.

Fortunately, my neighbor is a retired interior guy. Just looking for dis-assembly assist right now. Thanks.
