62 hardtop w/s installation question

[Willard M.]

I finally have decided to replace the front header weatherstrip on the hardtop of my 62. What is the procedure to remove the old one? There appear to be rivits down through a small plate every few inches basically holding the weatherstrip to the hardtop. What is the best way to remove these so that the old weatherstrip can be removed?

just use a very thin slotted screw driver, tap with a light hammer to raise the rivit, then you can use a good pair of plyers to pull the rivit out. Once out mark the holes with a pencil.
