The special tool is also used for fixing the sidescreens. If you take the tension from the hood material, the tenax should pop with finger pressure (with practice). Avoid lowering the hood with these still attached!!!!
With the easy fit hood......
The full tonneau cover fits over the hood, but interferes with seatbelt retraction unless you roll it back very carefully.
The hood cover fits over the hood, and can be fiddly to fit the poppers - but looks better than the full tonneau cover IMO.
I've given up with my full tonneau cover for now, which is why I made the special half-half cover, and winter buddy tonneau cover which is still in place!!!.
The older style hood with umpteen fasteners comes off to fit the tonneau cover.
