Removing speedster humps from Vantage Roadster
Discussion
Removing the speedster humps/fairings/bolsters (or whatever they're called) from a Vantage Roadster. I posed the question here and a couple forums and got no help, so here it is if anyone needs it:
Open the roof just enough to get the tonneau cover up. Be prepared to catch it when the hydraulics relax. Prop the tonneau cover open. I used a 2' long 2x4 and a couple throwable boat cushions. There are (9) T20 torx screws holding the bolsters in place, all of them readily visible from the bottom side of the tonneau once you have it raised. Don't miss #9 that's on the front inside corner. It goes through a leather tab and into its receptacle in the tonneau. After the screws are removed, simply lift it off.![](https://forums-images.pistonheads.com/692742/202409227350592?resize=720[/img]</a> <a href="https://forums-images.pistonheads.com/692742/202409227353394" Target="_blank" >[img]https://forums-images.pistonheads.com/692742/202409227353394?resize=720[/img]</a> <a href="https://forums-images.pistonheads.com/692742/202409227354991" Target="_blank" >[img]https://forums-images.pistonheads.com/692742/202409227354991?resize=720[/img]</a> <a href="https://forums-images.pistonheads.com/692742/202409227364255" Target="_blank" >[img]https://forums-images.pistonheads.com/692742/202409227364255?resize=720)
