I need some help getting the assembled convertible cover frame back into the car. A friend and I struggled to do this about an hour ago, and are going to try again tomorrow when the sun is back up. Is there a specific order to how it goes back in? We removed the former frame earlier this morning (had a torn cover on it), and are attempting to replace it with a good frame/cover I purchased at a local yard. However, having trouble getting it to align when putting it back in, getting the portion that has the frame bolts into position to re-bolt. Any tricks to this? Usually I just follow the "do the opposite of disassembly" method for reassembly, but removing it was somewhat tricky (having to remove lots of hidden plastic grommets and some wiring threw off a lot of my memory when we were trying to remove it at the end of the removal), and I just don't exactly remember how we got it out from the point of removing the frame bolts to lifting it out of the vehicle. Any help would be appreciated! -Daniel
