- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all roof panels and mounting hardware from the packaging. Inspect for any damage.
- Position Front Panel: Place the front roof panel onto the UTV's roll cage, aligning it with the front mounting points.
- Secure Front Panel: Use the provided hoops and bolts to loosely secure the front panel to the roll cage. Do not fully tighten at this stage.
- Position Rear Panel: Place the rear roof panel, aligning it with the rear mounting points and the front panel.
- Secure Rear Panel: Use the remaining hoops and bolts to loosely secure the rear panel to the roll cage and connect it to the front panel.
