Need advice on removing rollbar pad. I have removed the screws front and bottom but something seems to be holding it in place. Thanks.

That should be it. Make sure you have all of them out. I had a couple that were stuck in the pad and couldn't be drawn all the way out. So I had to pull and unscrew them at the same time. Sometimes they just get stuck.

Do you have the side bolsters out? I just installed one. I used a longer SS screw. It sure made it easier to put in.

Did you forget the two screws inside the latch opening?

They are very hard to get to!

Good call. I just manipulated the lever and it made it easier.

Be patient...I learned the hard way and now I can't find one to replace it.
The screws can be a long way into the padding and the heads can work their way crooked. If you don't have the screws all out they are probably still attached tp something.
