Rear Bow Striker







REAR BOW STRIKER





NOTE: Hydraulic pressure in the convertible top system may deplete after 10 minutes. To prevent the top from lowering, press the convertible top switch momentarily after the system beeps. This will re-energize the hydraulic system.

1. Close the convertible top.
2. Open the convertible top just until the rear bow is high enough to allow room for access.

NOTE: There may be shims mounted behind the rear bow striker. Be sure to save the shims and reinstall them properly.

3. Remove the bolts (1), the rear bow striker (2), and any shims that may be present.
