It's presumably under the trim strip, where I can't see it. I figure I'm going to have to take the whole thing off, but I am leery of just grabbing it and tugging until it all comes loose.

Is that the right way to do it, or is there another trick? How are the trim strips on either side fastened? Will I be able to replace only the fastener, or will I have to buy a complete strip? Many thanks for your help!

silver-S: PM me with your email address. I've got a pdf file for assembly/disassembly of the hard top I can send you.
