To pit it up, just pull it up, lock in the front, then push in the back.

To put down pull the cable release, unlock the front, pull up front, push back.

I always have the windows down.

Look for the cable release behind the drivers seat. You will see a lever and a small button. The lever releases the top and the button release the deck. The lever and the button are under the deck. After releasing the top, Raise the deck and fold the top down.

By windshield top do you mean the locking levers on the actual top, or the recievers on the windshield frame?

Just a tidbit also.....the normal release button for the coupe hatch back in the center console glove box (yellow button), will release the rear deck as well on a convertible.
