I am talking about the Firethorn Red pillar post on each side of the windshield.

I believe you need to remove the top window trim and post inner trim screws.

Purchase the 76 assembly instruction manual (AIM) and follow the diagrams. Trim screws and velcro.

Thanks for the help. The new pillar posts came with easy instructions. I followed them step by step and found it was a very simple job with just a phillips scredriver. Got them on in no time. Looks great.
