ok here a question, how do you remove the front side panels to replace the windsheld?
i know you have to unbolt the back from the inside,

 

I am assuming you are refering to a vert. there is one bolt down behind the fender and you have to remove the weather striping and channel held on by 3 or 4 screws. Then slide the cover up to release the clips and pull off. it is not that hard, just be carefull so you don't scratch the paint.
