How to Remove a Convertible Top From a 1990 Mercedes SL500



1. Start the car engine and put it in Park mode then roll down the windows of the car.
2. Sit in the drivers seat and look at the cars pillar which is on the outer side of your seat. There you will see a cable that is running all the way to the car top; this cable is actually connecting the car to the car top. All you need to do is unclip it.
3. Look on the right hand side next to the gearshift, you will notice a red button. Gently pull this button up, continue pulling it up for a few seconds until you observe an irregular blinking within six seconds of doing so.
4. Maintain complete silence so that you can hear the hard-top unlock from its four panels across the car top while you were pulling up the red button. This unlocking will result in the hardtop being elevated by almost an inch or a half.
5. Remove the top carefully.
