We found no issues with the instructions.
Make sure you have the proper pop rivets on hand, large head.

The OEM top

( first top(mine) was OEM and came with the proper rivets, second one was not OEM (Max's) and came with no rivets )
+1 to this. Not too bad a job. Re-shaping the window seals is the part that would throw most folks. When you "rip" them out, you deform the hidden/buried metal clips that hold its shape. Just squeeze them down, carefully, with a pliers/vice. Alaxfire and I can coach you.
