Convertible Top Header Clamps - Ford 1996 Mustang Manual

2. Check the convertible top stowage
compartment behind the rear seat to be sure
it is empty and ready to receive the top.
3. Unclamp the top from the windshield header
at both the right and left sides by pulling
each clamp rearward until the hook in the
windshield header is free. The clamps are
flush with the header when in the closed
position.
4. Close the windshield header clamps
immediately after disengagement, to avoid
cutting the top material and to permit
installation of the vinyl boot.
5. If the top has not been lowered for some
time and sticks to the windshield header,
push the front of the top up slightly with
your hand to loosen it.
