To remove the keyhole  over, insert a business card underneath the keyhole cover and pry it out.  If your keyhole cover does not stay inside the keyhole or if the paint ever chips, please contact me and I will ship you a replacement. 

JS2k.com Windscreens
IMPORTANT: You CANNOT have the Secret Compartment open when you are moving the soft top with the Tall JS2k.com Windscreen.
1. Put the top down.
2. Use a flathead screwdriver to pry the screw covers on each side of the windscreen to expose the screws.
3. Remove the two screws.
4. Use a credit card, paint scraper, or a plastic pry tool and start prying the sides of the black part of the windscreen.  This may take some time, patience, and elbow grease.  Be careful not to allow your tool to slip and gouge yourself or the windscreen.  I used a paint scraper, and it took 15 minutes the first time to separate the housing.
5. Once the housing has been separated, remove the three screws holding the windscreen.
6. Replace the old windscreen with the JS2k.com Windscreen.
7. Screw the three screws into the windscreen to secure it.
8. Use a bit of clear silicone adhesive on the two edges of the black housing.  We recommend clear silicone because it's clear and it is easy to remove if you wish to go back to stock.
9. Apply a piece of tape to both sides of the housing to hold it together for at least 12 hours so the clear silicone will dry.
10. Remove the tape after 12 hours.
11. Reinstall windscreen, and screws, and screw covers.
Notes: You can open the secret compartment without folding the Tall Windscreen down when the top is up.  With the Tall Windscreen, top operation is not affected.
