How to open a dead convertible top to repair

I found a lot of videos on how to close a convertible top but nothing on opening it so I created a little video on how to do so. Please like and subscribe if interested as I have done a series on IMS bearing replacement using homemade tools. An will be continuing with a series on swapping in 2.7 l into a 1999 Boxster. Enjoy.

Opening and Closing Boxster top by jumping relay.

Remove the top relay and apply power to terminals II/5 and II/7. One polarity will open, the opposite closes.
