there are two ways to do this..

1) put my car there.. open the top.. check if see need to replace side hydros... if not then just replace the main motor.. leave the top and all open, wait for 2 weeks for order to come.. then change.. and of course run the risk of the side hydros getting damaged due to wear and tear.. might be $1.5k

2) drive my car... order all the parts.. change the entire roof parts and motors to new... once all the parts come in i go down.. leave car for 2 days.. confirm at least $4k

so how?

lol...

You would need an Allen key for that. Let me know if you need help ......

Thanks! already closed but they didnt use an Allen key.. just pulled the cord in the boot and then manually closed it.. i was too careful because i worried that i might break something.

Usually it's the hydraulics at fault.
