I've removed everything from my targa, except the front pad that fits up against the seal. I can't find the screws in the hole, there's too much "stuffing" and prodding around can't get the screwdriver in the head of the screw.

What type of screws are holding it on? Hex, flat, regular?

I had the same problem when I was removing mine. I couldn't find the screw head so after a few days of fish around, I just ripped the damn stuffing and material off! Then I could see the small phillips head had been mounted at an angle. Good luck!

I've thought about it, especially since it's a bit torn underneath at one spot.

Is the pad really necessary? I know it pushes up against the seal, but I'm not worried about water, this car doesn't see the rain. Or does it help hold the seal on?
