Go to your owners manual it explains exactly how to release the rods on he clamshell and top. You basically have to pop them out using a pointy sharp tool that you have in your tool set that came with the car, it's the long aluminum one. If the top is down its the easiest way to pop then out. Once you do that you can move the clamshell and top freely and then you can start fixing it
