Correct! Each side has three bolts and some early cars have one screw too. Remove the clam and pop off the tension cables and control arm and the whole thing comes out quickly. I HIGHLY recommend removing the top if you're going to sew in a new window. Not only does it make it easier it will hopefully turn out looking better. Most tops with replacement windows look like Stevie Wonder sewed them. I recommend also putting something down so your lines look straight. Chalk,tape?
