Talking New owner of a 98 244 Jubilee

Well I took the plunge into Mariah ownership after a test drive on the waters in Tampa Bay I was hooked. The Jubilee is a very smooth ride with power to spare. Now on to the project of the interior. It seems that all the parts are there but the vinyl has reached the end of the line and the baking in the sun has thoroughly cooked it. Any input on how to dismantle the side rails, getting the screws to hold in the fiberglass, or any other advice would be appreciated.

    The back side panels will lift straight up with a little pressure. the front panels have screws behind the snap on buttons. Crongrats on the new purchase.

    Thanks for the tip on the side panels. Has anyone found a nice way to update the netting that is under several seats, like a map pocket? All of mine are stretched out and look saggy and faded.

    My dear sweet wife (i'm trying to get brownie points ok?) took mine off & simply replaced the elastic for me and they look just like new now.
