I cracked the right rear corner of the hard top when a tree limb whacked it while having fun.

There are some black panels(plastic) rectangular in shape, above the rear window spanning the width of the window on the inside. It leaks in heavy rain directly behind one of these panels. Ive tried sealing the outside, but i want to go at it from the inside too.

Has anyone taken those off, and how do you do it without breaking them? I need to pop one off and I cant find an exploded diagram or a video of anyone who has done this?

Had hoped someone had done it before. Not seeing anything I’ll just try to pry it off tonight. Will report back.

There is a TSB for the water leak IIRC. Some people put a silicone bead between the hard top and the window on the exterior which is what I would do personally. People have definitely removed those panels here; I've seen forum pics.
