Some time ago, I downloaded a PDF file from the 5.0 Resto site on how to change a top. I haven't had to do it yet, I downloaded it for future reference. Try searching their site it should still be there. Seem's like it was under a "how to" area or something like that (it's been a long time ago).

I'm having a new top and all new weatherstripping put on my car next week, but after talking to quite a few people about it I chickened out and decided to pay to have it installed. From what I hear it's a real bitch to do it right. Good luck!
