I have not seen a full version of it on the Internet. Someone on here may have it and might be willing to share....

I did it by myself back in 2008... I have a feeling I'm going to be doing it myself again this year

Getting the old one off is usually the easy part

yep, agree with Rocket.
and the hard part is cleaning the old adhesive out. The hardest part is applying the first flap to the 3rd bar.  I had some wrinkles. You will need help on this one, so that it will be align and wrinkle free.

I bought a copy of this video last week and my Top should be here monday.  If I had a video camera I'd make a video, but I don't have one.  This installation video is very informative but I have a feeling that it makes it look too easy.  I'll let you know.  I have to wait until I have a few days off in a row so I can tackle this great undertaking.  I will post pictures!
