How difficult was it to unscrew the parts from the hardtop?

red lock tight. i had to drill the stripped screw head and retap my hard top. took about 10 hours and you can mess up your hard top doing it.

It's not too difficult. I use a soldering iron and heat up the screw for a few minutes and came right off without a hitch.

That's exactly what I was thinking of doing. Glad to hear someone else has done it and it worked. Should be good news for the buyer of your latches too.

I had similar problems and ended up welding my torx bit to 2 of the bolts to remove them...
