No special tool for ear covers to be removed small opening on the bottom put a screw driver in and pop it out only held in by platsic clips two one side one the other. thats the easy thing to get off need to know how to remove all the inside trim and outer strips and rubber.....

Hard top going to spray painters next week any help here please before it goes there and they just break everything trying to take apart or paint over rubber when they can't work out how to take off... :ah:

Advice from other forum site only took one nite now hard top can go to spray painters tomorrow, just if anyone else would like to know here how to remove roof strips..

Roof strips pop right out - there are plastic clips (~4) under each strip that grip on threaded studs protruding from the channel under the strip. Replacement clips are cheap - plan on replacing them for reassembly.
Rubber is screwed on with each screw cleverly tucked under the folds of rubber. Some are real tough to find. Consider leaving the rubber in place and tape it. You can loosen it to better mask for painting...

I won't be taping anything everthing will be removed and respayed professionally.
Thanks again for you info ddb you helped heaps too m8........
