When done properly the top access to the engine in the 03 and 04 is no worse than access to the 02 and earlier. Open part way, disengage the tension cable ends, detach the water tray at the bottom, tuck the top of the glass down and pivot the bottom up then take the looped end of the tether around the bump in the roofs leading edge. This will keep the glass from wanting to flop back down. Now you have access to the speaker box (if equipped) and the engine cover. I do this at least once a year to access the power steering fluid and clean the engine.
