Default Hardtop vinyl install

OK, I've looked everywhere.
Does anyone have any information on how to R&R the vinyl top on a hardtop. I found a demo online but it is for a C2 top and I need help on my C3 top.
My old vinyl is torn and it is loose underneath like there was no glue used to hold it on.
The top is also painted the same color as the car so I'm debating just removing the vinyl and polishing up the top as it is.
Thanks for any information you have.

I just knew that information was out there somewhere.
I guess when I searched I should have left off the word hardtop;-)
