Right then, as I'm splitting my cabby, the time is coming to remove the roof!!!

I'm hoping to sell the whole lot in one hit, i.e. roof, tension straps, frame...(I have a buyer lined up - hopefully!)

So, is there a guide or any info anywhere about how to remove the roof???

Can't seem to find anything on this - even in the wiki - but it's been proved I'm not that good with the search function!!!
Not even a mention of soft tops in the haynes manual - was there a specific one for cabbys???

Any advice appreciated!!!

Fold hood,remove mounting bolts and lift off...

Cannot see it being any more difficult,you will probably have to remove the rear side trim panels first,though! :D

All covered in the driver's handbook that came with the car. Copy in wiki?
