how to remove the convertible top frame?

[97spydergst]

so im trying to find some sort of diagram of the frame on the spyder.... ive been googling and searching forums but not finding anything helpful.... mine needs replaced... and I found a guy that's gona sell me his top, frame including. and ive been seeing that its about 8 bolts holding the thing in. but I want to see if anyone has a pic of the bolts and so forth. all other posts ive seen are people with certain issues with their tops.

This is about all I've ever been able to find. I have removed the motors that operate my top and have seen that removing the top should be fairly straight forward. Look at part #8 in the diagram, that's the spot where it bolts to the body. Since I'm on-line right now, I'll do a quick search to see if I can come up with something better for you.

I know this is not what you're looking for as far as the post itself, but in the first couple pictures, it shows the area in which the frame bolts. It may help a little.
