Re: HIGHTOP ROOF REMOVAL TIPS?
I've removed 2 so far. I used a Black and Decker Scorpion saw to cut through the sealer/bonding and then cleaned residue off once roof was off. If there's two of you doing it maybe you could use a wire cutter like they use on bonded windscreens!

4" bolster chisel nice and sharp and big hammer from inside to cut through takes a while, tried the cheese wire method not controllable enough keeps trying to cut into the fibreglass

BOTH!! back and front bits were easier from outside. Depends on how much room you've got tp get the saw in. BTW, it completely jiggers the blade so use an old one if you can.camper man wrote:did you cut from the inside or out side?
