Pin 18 Relay Hack? (operating top while moving)
Can someone please point me in the right direction of exactly where to find Pin 18, so that I can tape/cut it and operate my top while moving?? I understand that it's a very easy hack, but I can't find exactly where this "Pin 18" is. I searched extensively for instructions on how to do this and keep coming up blank - the closest I find is this thread, but I still can't find Pin 18. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, clarification or (better yet) a diagram/picture would be much appreciated; thanks!

Convertible top hack (lower top while moving)
