Installing the hard-top

The hard-top has been designed to provide a
seasonal alternative to the standard soft-top.
To ensure proper installation, Tesla
recommends that the hard-top be installed by
a Tesla service technician.
WARNING: The mounting bracket bolts
securing the hard-top to the vehicle
should be routinely checked and tightened.
An incorrectly fitted or unsecured hard-top
could result in an accident.
WARNING: Avoid getting hands or
fingers trapped when installing or
removing the hard-top.
®
Use only the Torx tool supplied in the toolkit
to tighten or release the hard-top's bolts.
When storing the hard-top, care should be
taken to avoid damaging its corners. If the
hard-top must be stood on its end, use a
suitable soft floor covering.
Note: Because of its size, the hard-top should
only be removed or installed when a second
person is available to assist.
1. If necessary, remove the soft-top. For
instructions, see Removing the soft-top,
page 7-10.
2. Open both doors.
3. With the aid of an assistant, lift the
hard-top into position on the vehicle
4. Tilt the front of the hard-top to engage the
locating pins into the lower most slots on
the header rail. If necessary, loosen the
locating pin bolts to ensure that the pins
engage correctly on the header rail.
