Set the top on the car, latch the 3 front latches, insert the two bolts in the edge of the rear deck just behind the seats. Tighten those two bolts, unlatch the 3 front latches, unlatch the rear deck, raise the hard top and prop it up with something, this will get enough room to get under the deck to install the nuts and washers on the studs thru the deck.
