Stuart:
I just went out to the garage to look a my wifes TR6. The windshield is
aready off. There are indeed 3 bolts, 2 from the outside of the body(under
the fender) and one from the inside. I did not toutch them. I took off the
nut, then put a different one on. then used a punch and a BFH to lossen it
up. When you install it pit on some neversez. You never when you may have to
remove it again. Don't forget the 3 bolts on the inside of your windshield
frame.
Good Luck
