Hi Everyone! I own a 08 r52 convertible JCW. I've been trying to remove the top without a manual or details. Not easy.. I'm half way there, but it's really tough. Is there a manual or DIY link out there? Thanks in advance!

 

If this isn't the correct page, you should still find info on the site https://www.newtis.info/tisv2/a/en/r...le-top/3VI1cJb

 

this will get you all you need

 

Minnie.the.Moocher... thank you very much! I can't believe the Germans made this so complicated! I still don't understand how to remove the "two nuts". I just removed the bracket attached to the two nuts. Had this off in another 15 minutes with your link...went down to the junkyard and it took an hour to remove that one. Getting pretty fast at this now. It's in pretty good shape and only 42 dollars! Not for the faint of heart! Fingers crossed I get it all back to together. Any good sources for those black flat rivets had to drill out?

Shout out to hotairgypsy...that was the one video I could find, just enough detail to get the entire thing off. Hope I can repay the favor to the forum soon!

Thanks all! Near new top on the way!
