This link gives you a pretty good idea of what is involved in putting the top back on the car. It is really not difficult, you just have to be careful when aligning the rear of the top with the mounting pins against the back of the roof opening.

http://www.ehow.com/how_7581736_corv...tructions.html

I would add that between steps 3 and 4 of the installation, open the door on the side you will be standing on for the install - it will make it much easier to control where the top has to go than leaning up against the door.

Hope this helps. Couldn't find a video of the install process.
