if your taking the roof out with the frame its easy. remove rear seats and door cards there's a bolt behind these holding the frame on each side, then remove the four bolts in the horseshoe two on each side you might need a bendy link on your ratchet and frame lifts right out make sure you don't lose the shims

Thanks Paul all fitted now the front sesal had a leak but the one from my old roof was in good condition so swapped over and all is good. Amazing the difference in the look of the car with a fresher hood.
