— Pull the side bow forward and
down. Make certain the blocks on the side bows line up
with the retainers on the door rails. Ensure the blocks are

pletely, remove the window from the Velcro  and finish
zipping in the window. Tuck and secure the Velcro flaps
which are above and to the rear of the quarter window.
