Operation: How do you replace the roof of the Mercedes SLK?

In order to replace the sky of the Mercedes SLK, you need to partially lift the convertible top by pressing the button located on the central tunnel of the vehicle. Once the convertible top is lifted, you can loosen the screws that fix it laterally to its housing. By also disconnecting the internal fastening clips, you can completely detach it from its housing so that a new one can be inserted. After installation, it will be necessary to secure it with the corresponding screws and clips, and then lower the car's convertible top again.
