[Public-List] Public-List Digest, Vol 4170, Issue 1

[Winslow Ayer]

I don’t have pictures but the process is straightforward. If you have a fiberglass cover that the hatch slides under then you need to remove it. Mine had 15 screws that came out easily. You can then access both ends of the track. Take the screws out(front and back)the slide the track out, tilt the hatch and it will lift right off.
