I need to remove my Targa bar pad. I have removed the shoulder belt, pads right behind the belts, Targa trim and now am stuck on the bar pad. There looks to be screws deep in the pad. I “believe” I have loosened those. Some look to be missing (not surprising as previous owner seemed to have lost about 20% of the fasteners for most everything I have disassembled so far). Anyhow, it just doesn’t seem to want to budge. Not sure which way it is supposed to come off (Out toward front of car? Down?) I assume that the latch hardware comes off after the pad is removed? Any tips on this?

Richard-
As long as you have the screws out, it should slide right out. IIRC there are also some screws under the trim plate where the targa latches pass through, make sure not to miss them. These guys are right, it is a bitch to get em out and get 'em back in. |
